THE SHEPARDS WATCH
The sheep were grazing peacefully.a shepard stood nearby.
But down amongst the oaks and shrubs there shone a pair of eyes.
They crept along the underbrush,they slinked among the trees.
They got so close you smelt its breath,it shook the small sheeps knees.
The herd had been alerted,they gathered close and tight.
The shepard stood with staff in hand,to defend them with a fight.
But just as nerves were tingling,and sweat dripped from his brow.
Up popped his little brother on his way to milk the cow.
The sheep went back to grazing,the shepard turned about.
And said lil brother when you come this way,please greet me with a shout.
