Drama At the Zoo

" That's not my elephant!" Ella yelled at the zoo-keeper... walking slowly on her hands and feet scaring the second grader away; and making a funny face she added, " She doesn't eat spaghetti!" with a strong southern accent. " Young lady, don't make fun of people and animals... they have feelings like you!" but she, with little respect for the middle-aged man replied," Read The Bill Of Rights...I can do what I like...I have got freedom of speech!" " I do too, little punk!" Ray answered in rage. " If you don't knock it off, you will not see your baby elephant today!" " Listen, old man I may be a tomboy, but you have a foul smell and you need a shower!" " I need a shower...you need to wipe off that ugly, fat face of yours...what are you trying to do with all that make-up: look like a cover girl?" They finally got into a physical fight... she splashed a bottle of water on the zoo-keeper, and he wiped the heavy make-up off her face... "Oh, this fun" she said with excitement... " Yes, I am having fun too!" he confessed. And they laughed hard at each other... while the elephant and second grader danced.
