Thanks for your thoughts, Lizzie, I see what you mean about the title not being striking on its own, but the title was the first thing I thought of in the poem, and I kind of like it.
This poem is just an attempt to deliver a peaceful & optimistic, but still determined feeling. I wanted the poem to have an abstract message about living in the moment (the simplest action for a baby lamb requires full attention), while keeping an eye on the future (the horizon of an open field).
I don't know if it really works as I intended, but I think this is as close as I will come for now.
