Loyalsteer Poem by Dr.Balnarayana Bandam

A remote village where
One finds a herd of sheep
Shepherd whotake meadow to forage
Aroutine of all days along the year
On a summer day finds a dead dog
Might have had wild attack and
A puppy which is laying aside the dead mother
Shepperd lifted andhugged the puppy
Had not herd passed the way, death being puppy ‘s fate
Milked the sheep and fed with divine heart
One noble sheep among, on track teat feed the little dog
The sort ofmilkinglasted for a couple of months
Puppy stays at shepherd home under the care of family
The sheep feed at morning; puppy waits for evening feed
the intimacy thus developed puppy started to follow
Herd in company with fed mother sheep
constantly staying beside and bark if others approach
followingtime the puppy grew and became a dog
Physically strong, pleasant to look, terrifying
For others reach, thus a guard to mother, herd in total
No fox and jackal nor thief dare to come front or near
One day as the Shepperd being away
Fox entered the herd, while about to attack a sheep
Similar soldier dog attacked the wild and torn to pieces to dye
Thus for care a few months, dog served the fed mother
And the total herd for thy lifetime
Thus helping with the selfless motto, the returns are
Certain whether in human or animal to find
Good steer always ends with excellent results
