Sheep dine in the fields,
Noisy puffs of lanolin;
Hillside is alive.

nature,
Circa vista under seen
life and spirit flow..
sublime outline forms
little hill folds down..
cross the valley bleating sheep
combs coombe the eyrie hawk..!

love,
lovely woman- -
follow tracks of the sheep;
by shepherd tents graze
a favorite mare
harnessed by Pharaoh- -
beside you it pales
your beautiful eyes
sparkle the dark of midnight- -
I feel your breath

animal, nature, winter,
Winter chills air;
birds flock and feed from berries
before the famine
Sheep graze greedily;
Keen eyed buzzards pick off prey
nature's bleak beauty
When winter is done;
Birds will welcome spring and sing
for joy each new dawn

Rubbing against my 2 legs

They watch me like a shepherd
My sheep follow me!

Follows me into bathroom
Hope she turns her head
