"Gentle Shepherd" - 🐑 ~A Papa-Pepper Haiku~ 🐑

"Train up a child in the way he should go;
    even when he is old he will not depart from it."
- Proverbs 22:6 -

Papa Pepper has been blessed.

From the time I first "met" @papa-pepper here on Steemit, I could see the truth of that.

I've taken great delight in observing Papa's homesteading efforts, his creative community interaction, and most important of all, the way he shepherds his beautifully growing family. Papa's little ones are truly blessed.

Papa is raising a fine flock of @little-peppers.

That's why my haiku focuses on @papa-pepper's shepherding skills...

Gentle Shepherd

Showing them the way.
Teaching vital life skills well,
Shepherding his flock.

God bless you, Papa.

You and your entire family.

Keep a steady hand, and hold to that good course.
