Strayed Sheep
The scene of cliff, coast and a flock of sheep,
a view of the blue ocean, sky, and wild mossy cliff;
where sheep have strayed, too bewildered to leap,
they stand, sleep, or sit among wildflowers and sniff.
It was a case of follow the other perhaps in the rain,
the painting by the artist is so gorgeous and vivid;
now, for some sheep strength has begun to wane,
others bleep, bleep for help quite distressed and livid.
Though they create a lovely view they are defenceless,
they don't need a cliff but need a lush meadow green;
oh, why did they wander so far, it is senseless ?
Yes, true the artist captured a colourful, detailed scene.
As fear deepens in them the sheep groups are tightened;
for me the painting is layers of color and of sheep frightened.
