Little Fly (Other) by PodPoet
There used to be a little fly
Who saw the world through all her eyes
On everything touched by her little feet
Instead of germs, she brought a treat
She had the power to change things
By spreading love and all it brings
One day she landed on George Bush
Then caught the jet stream and was pushed
Across the Atlantic to the Middle East
Determined to replace hate with peace
She fell from the sky as if heaven-sent
And brought to Saddam Hussein a certain present
Landing on one of his big toes
That little fly changed two foes
And turned them into two men
Who loved each other as two friends
And soldiers returned from overseas
And all the prayers on all the knees
Were heard and answered that very day
Each, you can be sure, in its own way
Peace reigned over the Earth
And the little fly gave birth
To a dozen more just like herself
Whose progeny will always help
Spread the germ known as love
Sent from somewhere up above
Buddha, Jesus, Mohammed and God in the sky
All of them -- and many more -- are the fly
