Keeping guard with vigilance,
as if over prison inmates.
A job quietly,
so unobtrusively done.
Accepting of a humble life.
When they were alone
on that dark, lonely hillside
did they remember prophecies?
Living simple lives
of hardship and solitude
there was only obedience.
May I too keep guard
against selfishness and greed
so I, perhaps, might hear angels.
