The 4th Grade Circus
They walked on stilts, used hula hoops,
Did devil sticks and juggled balls,
Raised spinning plates and, in their groups,
They followed all the leader’s calls.
The 4th grade students who performed
Had practiced just for 3 quick days,
Yet when into the gym they stormed,
Their new-found knowledge did amaze.
All dressed alike, in black and white,
They confidently showed their skills
And to their kith and kin’s delight
Their acts produced both cheers and thrills.
They weren’t perfect, but for sure,
No matter if they made a goof,
Their joy was obvious and pure,
Their beaming faces perfect proof.
Who would have thought a circus crew
Could do such magic in a week,
As kids found talents no one knew,
All unexpected and unique.
