Once upon a time, there was a small Flea and a big Ox. One day, the Flea jumped onto the Ox's back and started a conversation.
"Why do you allow humans to boss you around and make you work all day? You're much larger and stronger!" the Flea questioned. "I'm just a tiny flea, yet I feed on their skin and drink their blood freely, and they can't do anything about it!"
Looking down at the Flea, the Ox replied with a gentle tone, "That's because the humans take good care of me. They give me food, water, and a place to live. They even pat my head and rub my shoulders, which I find quite comforting."
The Flea, surprised by this, wiggled its tiny body. "That sounds horrible! When humans touch me, it's usually trouble! If they manage to catch me, I'm finished!"
And so, both the Flea and the Ox carried on with their lives in the farmyard, each with their own unique perspective. The Flea couldn't comprehend why the Ox accepted the humans, and similarly, the Ox couldn't fathom why the Flea was so afraid of them.

"Why do you let humans tell you what to do and work all day? You're so much bigger and stronger!" asked the flea. "I'm just a tiny flea, but I bite them and drink their blood, and they can't stop me!"
Looking down at the flea, the ox answered calmly, "It's because the humans take good care of me. They feed me, give me water, and a place to stay. They even pat my head and rub my back, which feels nice."
The flea was shocked. "That sounds awful! When humans touch me, it means trouble! If they catch me, I'm done for!"
And so, the flea and the ox continued their lives at the farm, each understanding things differently.
There is a small flea and a big ox. The flea jumps on the ox's back.
"Why do you listen to humans and work all day? You are big and strong!" says the flea. "I am small, but I bite them. They cannot stop me!"
The ox looks at the flea and says, "Humans take care of me. They give me food and water. They give me a place to sleep. They pat my head and rub my back. It feels nice."
The flea is surprised. "That sounds bad! When humans touch me, it is trouble! If they catch me, I am in danger!"
The flea and the ox live on the farm. They understand life differently.

Once upon a time in the coolest barnyard you could imagine—this wasn't your regular mud-and-straw scene, this was more like a fun playground—there lived a tiny Flea who thought he was the funniest bug in town, and a massive Ox as calm as a summer breeze.
One sunny day, the Flea did a big jump, flipping in the air like a tiny circus performer and landing right on the Ox's back. "Hey there, big buddy! How's the view from up there? Got room for one more?"
The Ox let out a slow sigh, but it was clear he wasn't annoyed. "Hello, little friend. What brings you to my neck of the woods—or should I say, my neck of the fur?"
The Flea grinned, trying to imagine himself with a top hat and cane. "Well, Mr. Calm-and-Cool, I’ve got to ask you: why do you let people tell you what to do? You’re so big, you could be the boss of this whole place! Ever thought about turning the tables?"
The Ox chuckled softly. "You make it sound fun, but the humans treat me really well. They give me yummy food, a nice place to sleep, and you won't believe this—they scratch my back. It's like my own mini-vacation!"
The Flea made a face as if he'd tasted something sour. "Back scratches? Yuck! When humans touch me, it's like a game of tag I never wanted to play. If they catch me, I'm out!"
"You see," said the Ox, "we’re like two sides of the same coin. You like to live on the edge, while I like my simple, happy life."
The Flea paused, pretending to strum a little air guitar. "Well, you keep doing you, and I'll keep doing me. Just don't kick up too much dirt; you’ll ruin my stage!"
"And you," the Ox answered, "keep bringing the jokes. A good laugh makes the grass taste sweeter."
And so, in their super-fun, top-rated barnyard, the Flea and the Ox continued their unique lifestyles. The Flea couldn’t figure out why the Ox was so chill about people, and the Ox couldn’t understand why the Flea seemed to love danger. But it didn’t matter, because sometimes it takes all kinds of friends to make life a real party.
Flea met Ox one sunny day,
Hopped on his back, had something to say.
"Hey, big Ox, why toil and sweat,
While I sip blood, no fuss, no fret?"
Ox looked down, his voice so mild,
"Human care makes life less wild.
They feed and water me, you see,
Even give a pat or three."
Flea wiggled, "That’s not the life for me!
Humans touch, I dash, I flee!
If they catch me, then I'm through,
How could you like what they do to you?"
Ox and Flea, a sight to behold,
Two odd friends, a story told.
Both stayed true to how they feel,
One loved care, one dodged a heel.
Ox couldn’t see why Flea took flight,
Flea didn’t get Ox's simple delight.
And yet they coexisted fine,
In the farmyard, under the sunshine.
