I am the gate of the sheepfold.
All others who come are thieves and brigands.
We try to do what by our conscience we are told.
In the past and nearer in mindful lands.

He tells us  I am the gate.
Anyone who enters through me will be safe.
As we approach this gate will we be late.
At all these commands will our mind chafe.

To enter we must know ourself.
Be aware of our emotions and thought.
Study them , put them on a high shelf.
Lest  in an eternal suffering  cycle, we be caught.

The good shepherd is standing there.
Soon all will be so more clear.

……..

We see the sheepfold
But it is hard to enter
We all need a guide

See John 10: 1-10
