Clowns: A Day at the Circus by Ana_Maria && Mistermafio The smell of saw-dust in the air spotlights, music little chairs. big tents and loud sounds cannon-fire BAM! people on stilts, tall indeed Animals of all shapes and sizes, lots of things to see, lots of people to meet. down there in the circus Lions, tigers, and bears oh my Tamers with whips and with chairs cages and chains but well cared for magicians and snakepeople, all nimble and fast I do enjoy all these things, but there is one guy I really can't get passed he has big floppy shoes and a painted smile a huge red nose that beeps when squeezed He wobbles around, left to right, never really talking much, and his face painted white big red lips in shape of smile if ever frowned, how'd we know? This man is here, to put up a show. He giggles to his friend, dressed just like him. blowing up balloons shaping them like dogs and other things funny animals and little hats entertaining the kids, even making the adults laugh from time to time as he does that little act in which he finds a dime hidden behind my ear how in the world did that get there? he laughs loud, and hands the dime over as he offers you a snuf, of his giant fourleaved clover silly person to smell that clover didnt know would get wet when this man squeezed the bulb laughs from the audience as his face got bright red, a little embarrassed, but not really mad nor embarrassed just awesome at job he loves so much doesnt even see as work Ah yes the clown, every circus' best part no tension, no gasps, just plain old laughing very hard. Shot from cannon but not hurt landed in net keeping safe that which he entertains He walks back out, and without restraints, grabs a delicious looking cake. He moves to offer it to his friend, or was it a pie? Whoops Pie in your eye as it lands in your face Again the crowd is lauging, me joining in as well, as our friend is nice enough, to try and clean up the spill but the cloth you see goofy patterns and oversized spots keeps coming and going from his pocket! Never ending, it seems, as cloth after cloth appears, Solid colors and stripes lots of various patterns I see Until we reach the end, eventually. But what is that! That ain't a cloth 'tis fake vomit? or some other gag maybe fake guts to make us gasp But its all ok, all fun and games, as after the gasps die down, only laughter remains this clown is here to entertain making us laugh children smile and everyone happy Yes, a day at the circus a sideshow of animals and a funny clown 'tis how my day went though the clown was the best!
