The Flea There once was a flea who lived on the back of the neak of a dog But the flea thought the dog was a mighty warthog How brave was the flea in battle with the hog every day When in reality the dog chased the cat in every way One beautiful eve the dog laid down and died The flea climbed down and looked him straight in the eye "My O my" said the flea "Your not a warthog I see" But one things for sure You were a grand friend to me. By Connie McDonald copyright@2001 June 20, 2001 This was a story I made up for my 3 yr old... she was on the pottyLOL and wanted to hear a story... as a mom you get real tired of the same old books that are their favorites... So I like to make them up This one just stuck with me: ) |

 (big hugggsssssss) Awwwwwwww, I couldn't help but cry reading this, it saddened me to see the dog's time come, but also made me smile to feel the flea had a friend to be close to! (wipes tears) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is sooooooo beautiful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Connie, thank you for sharing!   May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
