What
the shepherd looked for
Was
one who would recognise
His
voice, one who would follow
His
feet, one to enjoy
His
pastures, one who was suitable
To
be brought to the house.
What
the woman sought
Was
one who would shimmer to
Her
lamp, one who would show
The
Master’s face, one to enhance
Value
within the house.
And
what the father looked out for
Was
one who could wear
The
best robe with dignity, act
According
to the gold ring, dance
Like
a son in the sandals. One
With
whom, in his house, he could share.
