Magpie and Dog.

       Magpie and Dog developed a unique friendship because they both had flaws;
Magpie gas a burnt wing, Dog has one blind eye. Magpie benefits from this because
Dog runs with her on his back making her feel like she can fly and Magpie can look at things for Dog.


      Where Dog and Magpie went wrong, though, was not listening to each other. Dog didn't listen
to Magpie when she said Fox was bad news, and then Magpie took off with Fox because
he could convince her she'd really feel like she was flying being with him. Once she does that
Fox betrays her and takes her to the middle of nowhere with her wings that don't work and
tells her now Magpie and Dog will, "know what it feels  like to be truly lonely."


      Magpie refuses to leave Dog alone but then again her wing doesn't work. She starts
dragging herself to try to make it back to Dog. The story ends and it leaves you in suspense
on what will happen next, I feel as if Magpie will make it back to Dog just because she
is so determined to find him and be by his side again.

           One of the songs I came across was the song "Who Built The Ark?" made by Alan Lomax

and sung by Bessie Jones. This song stresses his hard work and obedience to God  even though he was considered a joke to his neighbors. In the song it states "Noah obeyed everything God said. And all his family was saved that day" putting actual morals in the song.

Another song I came across was   "Bring Them In" by William A. Ogden. Which says "No-ah you are a man so good; Try-ing to do the things you should. Build me an ark ex-act-ly so. I will be with you where you go." stressing how good of a person he is for doing this for all the humans and animals.

Another song was "Noah, Hoist the Window" which talked about how all the citizens thought that Noah was a foolish man for what he was doing. It said "The people called Noah a foolish man, 'cause he built his ark on the high dry land" which stresses the joy and the relief from worry experienced at the end of the Noah story, when the dove returns with an olive branch, signifying that the world has began to dry.
