Habe heute ein schönes Gedicht entdeckt und konnte nicht daran "vorbeigehen" ohne es allen zu zeigen, auf das es jedem Leinenträger zu denken gibt - von wegen "Krone der Schöpfung" und so:
When God had made the earth and sky,
the flowers and trees,
he then made all the animals and all the birds and bees.
And when his work was finished not one was quite the same.
He said, I`ll walk this earth of mine
and give each one a name.
And so he travelled land and sea and everywhere he went,
a little creature followed him, until his strength was spent.
When all were named upon the earth
and in the sky and sea,
the little creature said “Dear lord, there`s not one left for me.”
The father smiled and softly said “I`ve left you to the end.
I`ve turned my own name back to front and have called you
DOG, my friend”
he then made all the animals and all the birds and bees.
And when his work was finished not one was quite the same.
He said, I`ll walk this earth of mine
and give each one a name.
And so he travelled land and sea and everywhere he went,
a little creature followed him, until his strength was spent.
When all were named upon the earth
and in the sky and sea,
the little creature said “Dear lord, there`s not one left for me.”
The father smiled and softly said “I`ve left you to the end.
I`ve turned my own name back to front and have called you
DOG, my friend”
