The Lamb

In my AP Lit class, we do this thing called the Daily Bard. Each day, one person finds a poem & shares it at the end of class.

Today was my day. I planned on using a poem that a friend suggested, but it wasn't in the book so I instead settled for a poem whose title is (basically) what my name means.

The Lamb
by William Blake

Little Lamb who made thee
         Dost thou know who made thee
Gave thee life & bid thee feed.
By the stream & o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing wooly bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice!
         Little Lamb who made thee
         Dost thou know who made thee

         Little Lamb I'll tell thee,
         Little Lamb I'll tell thee!
He is called by thy name,
For he calls himself a Lamb:
He is meek & he is mild,
He became a little child:
I a child & thou a lamb,
We are called by his name.
         Little Lamb God bless thee.
         Little Lamb God bless thee.
