Clowns Don'T Frown Nursery Rhyme

Elmer Q. Round was a man who clowned wore pointed red hat, bounced when he walked. He seldom frowned because he had found smiles kept teeth in his mouth when he talked. Elmer could run but he liked to bound over the hills and through the big trees. He could swing all his words clear around make them funny for he liked to tease. Did you know he said you might turn blue if you catch a frown instead of smiles? It sounds crazy, but in case it's true just throw those old frowns into big piles! April 15, 2022 for Nursery Rhyme 3 Poetry Contest by Eve Roper FIRST PLACE!

Great advice Ann :)'s are always more powerful than :('s. I think I have heard it said a smile is a frown turned upside down. This is just delightful! Blessings and best wishes for the contest! Happy Easter.
