the clowns are here

The clowns are here
Cheer is here
Can you hear
Their pantomime
Can you see
Their smudgy tears
Can you smell the sawdust
Coughing through the aisles


The clowns are here
The careless laugh of every child
Infects every adult
Too stoic to see
Madness and mayhem
With a message in between
The child is within you
Set it free


The clowns are here
And every frown will flee
Every cobweb is banished
Even reality is real
The clowns are here
The clowns are here
The clowns are here
And I'm grinning with glee

P.S. I had a bit of an off day behind the lens. Duende got some kick ass photos though, perched on his high vantage point. Hopefully they'll be up soon. :)
