The Wonderful Thing about Mango





The Wonderful Thing about Mango
Is he was a  wonderful thing
His top was made out of rubber
His bottom was made out of springs
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Mango
Is He's the only one

The wonderful thing about Mango
Is he was a wonderful chap!
Just  loaded with vim and with vigor
He'd love to leap in your laps
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Mango
Is He's the only one
Oh he was a wonderful fellah.
And he was just awfully sweet.
Everyone else is jealous,
And that's why I repeat...

The wonderful thing about Mango
Is not just relentlessly huge
Cause there are a lot of big doggies
But he is the one we would choose
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Mango
Is He's the only one

Now Mango would show you his dancing
He truly was light on his feet
And while he was out there prancing
Well, he looked a marvelous treat.

Accompanied by his Momma
With Dexter there keeping the beat
He captured the heart of  all blogland
And that is why we repeat:
The wonderful thing about Mango
Is he was a  wonderful thing
He managed to leave us all smiling
Remembering how he would sing
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Mango
Is He's the only one


Yes Heeeeee's the only one.


With Thanks to Mango Momma for the portrait and to AA Milne for the inspiration.

Oh Gussie...what a lovely artistic triumph!!! It helps to smile about him...we've cried way too much....

Oh, we heard about Agatha's misspelling of Bussie's name....I think she needs her nails trimmed...shocking at how long she wears them considering she is a Head Nurse....

Kisses dear,
