A little lamb fell
And he could not get up.
He struggled and tried,
But he was just stuck!
He did not know
Just what he would do
To get himself freed.....
He had not a clue.
His other sheep friends
Just walked right on by.
He hoped they would help him,
But they didn't try.
Then a little boy saw him
And ran to his side.
"Sad little lamb,
I heard when you cried!"
The little boy helped him
To stand on his feet.
With joy and relief
Did the little lamb bleat!
He was not hurt
But nervous and scared.
He was so glad
That the little boy cared.
He was happy again.
He could run all around.
When the little boy helped him,
A new friend he found.
The little boy saw
That the lamb had a need.
When he stooped down to help him,
He did a good deed!
