When I was little
We walked to the meadow.
You told me to hold out my hand.
Placed wheat in it.
I reached out to feed the sheep.
It was frightening at first
But they nibbled and I giggled.
“Baa… baa,” they thanked me.
That was the day my love for animals grew.
You showed me a whole different world.
That was my favorite place to visit growing up.
When I am older,
I want to take my children to feed the sheep.
I want to show them what you showed me.
