Notes About The Poem

The Clowns Are Coming-Nursery Rhyme

The clowns are coming! The circus starts today.
There'll be hot dogs and cotton candy-hooray!
With balloons of every color, puppets and games,
And so many animals that the brave people tame!

I love to watch jugglers and the man jumping rope,
And they'll have lots of fun rides there, I hope.
But mostly I want to see the funny, funny clowns,
With pink hair and red noses, always falling down!

Just great, Evelyn. A Thousand Clowns, I always say. Hard for me to believe that American kids today are growing up without ever having seen a circus in person... Oh, well. Times change... :) gw
