THE TWO FLOCKS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO NOW, WHITE SHEEP
Last Line: CLOUDS IN THE AIR!
Subject(s): DEATH; DEAD, THE;

Where are you going to now, white sheep,
Walking the green hill-side;
To join that whiter flock on top,
And share their pride?

Stay where you are, you silly sheep:
When you arrive up there,
You'll find that whiter flock on top
Clouds in the air!
