På tal om saker att ha på kylskåpsdörren så hade jag den här när jag fortfarande bodde i Födelsestaden. Den får mig fortfarande att gråta som ett barn varje gång jag läser den så det är ganska olämpligt för min del att se den flera gånger om dagen, men ibland så...

When God had made the earth and sky,
the flowers and the 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 it´s 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 ´til the end,
I´ve turned my own name back to front
and call you Dog, my friend".
