Nurture by Wendy G
Nonet Poem Contest writing prompt entry



Shepherd watches over precious sheep

Always protects them from danger

They are his and his to keep

Safe from every stranger

Knows them all by name

Loves each dear one

Home they came

Day's done

Peace


Writing Prompt
Write a nonet poem. It's a simple format. See the announcement for an example.

Author Notes
Thinking about:
Psalm 23: The Lord is my Shepherd
Jesus as the Good Shepherd, loving and caring for His people (we are often like sheep)
The Parable of the Lost Sheep. The shepherd went to extraordinary trouble to find and rescue his loved lost one.

Note: Syllablecounter.com accepts the fourth line as having six syllables.
