Poem July 1, 1985 Issue

And there were abiding in the fields—shepherds

KERRY M. KNOBELSDORFF

Are you one of these abiding?
Unsung, unknown,
except by those
whose hearts you warm
with simple truths
that set them free.

You give them hope.
You teach them love,
ablaze with wonder,
you show them God,
in your modest corner
of the field, O shepherd!
