The young giraffe ate a hot red pepper The poor animal felt like a leper. The spicy fruit was too hot and it took Her long to digest for some greens to hook. The zoo keeper called it a Giraffe Park. Ostriches buried their heads in the dark. The ostrich wanted to say I'm sorry, Took too long for its neck just to worry. The ostrich and the giraffe meant to race. They came neck to neck and both had great pace Medals won. Giraffe needed a ladder. Guard fell from a height, it did not matter. A new male giraffe was brought to the zoo Lovingly they twined their necks through and through. Soon life took its course with a baby boy. The ostrich buried its head with no joy.
