Black And White Lambs by Pat Scrap on Pixabay
If I were just a little lamb in spring,
I think that I would want to be both black
And white. I think that I would sling and fling
Myself about on greenest grass and tack
About in glee. Why not? If I were white
And white I’d feel the least bit bored. The Good,
Good, Good is far too mild and maybe trite.
I’d feel that I was saying, “All lambs should
Be innocent and never, never baaaaaad.
And then again if I were black with no
Curled white upon me, that would be too sad.
No. No. Give me both ebony and snow.
..I’d want to think that Christ made me both curls
….Of black and white perhaps in mixed up twirls.
