Comment from Cindy Decker
Linda, I loved your poem. The words describe such a terrible life void of love. I am surmising because this person does not seek God's love. All your words ring true to a person with a hollow meaningless life. It made me a little depressed which proves it was very effective. I have felt like the poem's feeling, but God has rescued me time and again.
Wonderful poem. Excellent work.
Best wishes,
Cindy

Thank you, Cindy. Don't stay depressed about it but I was happy to know that this poem did leave a reader with some feeling of her reality. Thank you for being a fan and keep safe. Linda

Comment from Julia Telep
I really like this poem because I relate to the sheep because sometimes I do feel stuck. Whether it be a bad day and feel like a curse, or I can't think of anything when I need to.

Julia: the focus of the poem was on the shepherdess but I'm happy that you could relate and something moved you. Stay safe. Linda
Comment from HansiJ
I think the shepherdess is stuck in a tiny world where the same routine continues for each and every day. I think most of us are such Shepards stuck in our own world, doing the same thing that we do not enjoy. Only few possess the strength of breaking free.
Good luck!

HansiJ: it is true that we get stuck in our routines much of the time. But, 'back in the day', this shepherdess had no way out and knew of no other possibilities. Today, many people do find the strength and some just comfortably remain, feeling safe in their everyday routine. Thanks for reading. Linda
