THE HAUGTHY ELEPHANT
The fox returned to the Elephant.
“Ha…ha…ha…!
The elephant said, “What’s so funny, Mr. Fox?
Why are you laughing again?
The fox stopped laughing and cleared his throat.
“It was Mr. Tiger. He wouldn’t leave the pond. So, I
told him you were coming to get him.”
“And he left?” asked the elephant.
“Yes, Mr. Elephant. He left without saying
anything.”
The elephant huffed, “That’s much better of
him.”
The elephant visited the stream a few weeks later.
He splashed the cool water over his body, but
someone muddied the water again.
