Dancing Clown Constanza
Who is this funny dancing clown
who entertains throughout the year
with painted frown and brush stroked tears?
His dizzy spins go round and round
'til orange hair and polka dots
look like a crazy spinning top.
Then plopping down upon the ground
as children laughed until they cried
at funny dizzy crisscrossed eyes.
There, where his frown was upside down,
the happy circus filled with smiles
as other clowns ran in the aisles.
Now laughing loud without a sound
and gaily dancing as he left,
belying inner tears he wept.
Who is this funny dancing clown?
His dizzy spins go round and round,
then plopping down upon the ground,
there, where his frown was upside down
now laughing loud without a sound.
