Carnival Contest

Wild rides, Bright costumes allure, Like Broadway, In hard times, Distorted laughter echoes, A cheap treat for all. Gaudy lights, Masks with painted smiles, Festivals In the dark, A house of many faces, Screams of sheer delight. By sabina written 8/15/11 contest: Carnival

Sabina, Loved the wording gaudy-and the distorted mirrors. How fun! I must live in a poor town bc we have not had these distorted mirrors in any of our carnivals. Best to u and your future writing. Congrats at the top of the podium. Gwendolen
