The Lost Sheep Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

The Lost Sheep

Rating: 5.0


The Lost Sheep

I know a shepherd
who always counts his sheep

One day he looked so sad
and I asked him what was wrong.

Today I miss one, he said very sadly
shall I help search?

In the blink of an eye
we were among the rocks,
on the riverside,
and in the dense forest
looking for that one lost sheep

How happy the shepherd was
when they found him,
the sheep was drinking by the river
I was also very happy with it

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Eventhough ONE sheep was lost, the shepherd regards that as precious and as important. Truly a very good shepherd
