She Is Riding An Ostrich

She will probably be dressed to the sevens but riding a goat. I could not wait to see her, my Great Aunt, Myrtle Van Poat. I think she traded the goat for an alligator Uncle Tye said. Well maybe she won’t come at all, maybe she’s dead. The relatives sound jealous of Aunt Myrtle if you ask me. She has been on cruises, and adventures in at least six seas. She did not tie herself down with a dull, boring, banal life. She’s riding an ostrich! Says Penelope, Uncle Tye’s jealous wife.
