Clowns (Cirque Du So Leil)

(My humbled tribute clowns all over, deceased or alive) 


Cheerful faces made up and painted white 
Glowing with stark colors extra bright 
Wonderful array of emotions on faces displayed 
Making people happy is the way in their hearts and their heads 

Some might think that it is only a simple job 
But really it is more than that it's a choice when they laugh or they sob 
A decision that they've come to terms with when they gleed 
Even when deep inside they may be also so broken-hearted 

But they continue making people laugh just the same 
And entertaining children of all the ages just alike 
They bring into the world so much joy and happiness acclaimed 
As they spread to the mermerized crowds all their charms unnamed 

Funny faces made up of white paint as they ride 
Melting sad hearts and sowing everywhere hopes 
Even when they may be hurting deep inside 
They always bring to the world so much joy as they play!
