My Name
Once there was a little fly. One day, he could not remember his name! He tried and tried, but it was no use. He asked an ant, “Ant, do you know my name?” The ant said, “I don't know. You may ask the tree I climb.” The fly said, “Dear tree, do you know my name?” The tree said, “I don't know. You may ask the cow sleeping in my shade.” The fly asked the cow. The cow said, “I don't know. You may ask the grass I eat.” The fly asked the grass. The grass said, “I don't know. You may ask the leaves fallen on me.” The fly asked a leaf. The leaf was about to answer, when the wind blew. The leaf began to fly. Seeing this, the fly remembered his name! “My name is Fly! My name is Fly!” he said happily.
