Ella Fitzgerald " Singing Memories " By: Jaida
Ella.
Was funky, smooth, the queen bee, and entertainment.
Ella was mainly the daughter of Tempie and William, but partly the child of independence. She grew up with freedom inside of her.
Ella best loved shining out and being different from others.
Ella felt no one could stand in her way. When she sang she felt like she was in another world.
Ella feared nothing. Did Ella let anybody hold her back? No way! She let it go though one ear and out the other.
Ella needed courage, belief, and confidence which is what she had. She didn't care what anybody had to think, she was the best in her world.
Ella gave nothing but all her might to make the crowd roar.
Ella from Yonkers, New York.
Ella was the sun that shined when it was gloomy.
