with them watching
yeah

wanna feel

Surreal expectations in the masquerade world of whimsy
Jokers and jugglers painting selves with utter fun frenzy
The world of fantasy is charged with expectations of madness
I watch the entusiastic players enter without one bit of sadness...

jugglers move in wiggling tails
juggling their hearts 
and bottles
little girl amazed stared 
rainbows in her deep 
dimples
golden strands licking her 
purple lips
red northern wind moved around
cigliano juresis santica
humfrig sutena vladim...

jugglers moved in
wiggling their tails
rainbows in her
deep right dimple
edges of her dancing
hair caressing the pink lips
subdued pastal hues
purple marrying green
internally reflected
light of passion
decluttering hidden
sorrows misaligned
refractive index of
resistant love

jugglers balls


oh watch them fall
he was a she before
it
all
not sure 
...
these dots
help at all
ima dumb
ida can read
whosa
written
to
me
just turn to figure
learning to breath
just wanna feel
her
breath
on
me
hope she swallows
jugglers balls
we will be
waiting
when
her
curtain falls
on jugglers balls

At the circus were acrobats,
Jugglers and clowns
And dancers in costumes,
All spangled, or gowns.

A walker on tightrope,
The flying trapeze,
With music and acts
Which all ages would please.

There was pink cotton candy
And popcorn for sale
So that joy and excitement
And smiles would prevail.

At the circus were families
Delighted to be
There, like both of my grandkids,
My husband and me.

If I owned a circus
for you I'd play the clown
(Do jugglers ever tire of throwing up?
Only when they're sick of it.)
or if I had a rickshaw
I could run you round the town
if I were landlord of a bar
drinks would be on me
as proprietor of a restaurant
you would dine for free
and if I had a row boat
I would float you down the stream
but as I have none of these
all I can do is dream
...

Need to laugh?
Watch a clown's
       face!


Elephants's
strategy...
       dust!
 
              
Come out now,
slim jugglers...
        fun!


Trapezes swing...
couple making
        stunts!


Baby's eyes
look too scared...
         lion!
         

Small monkeys
jump and play...
         cheer!


Fast stallions
excite crowd...
          glee!


All come out
to thank them...
          glad!

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!

Listen to poem:

Dear Editor
David J Walker

Dear editor
How is it that you will
Make my thoughts better

Rearranging words and
Changing cadence 
At your leisure 

The poetry that constantly
Parades between my retina and
Cranium

One pass wonders that I must
Describe going by as if jugglers in
A gymnasium

That might drop the balls
But always catch them before
Any fall to the floor
Of your cutting board

Dear editor
Maybe you can make it better
But for now
Go away and leave me alone...
