Poetry
The shepherd watches the sheep,
Through the night with no sleep;
The same is with those we share,
For God placed them in our care.
For your family is your core,
Sacrificing for them every chore;
No matter what the task may be,
As you are handling it diligently.
Be more than willing and able,
Not acting like as old and feeble;
Rather something wanting to do,
Seeing the task all the way through.
Do not be bossy in boastful pride,
Rather in being humble deep inside;
God frowns on those who are proud,
Usually being too boisterously loud.
So the family is your core of life,
Where a man is one with his wife;
In being a shepherd as you share.
For a lifetime of ever loving care.
