Circus Poem by Martine Kolber

Circus

Rating: 5.0


Dancing balls of fire
Chose freedom in their way
Smiling faces brightly colored
Chose passion to make them stay

Applauding people everywhere
And a glimpse of life was in the air
As the artists loving hands
Played games beyond all stands
A world so different from the rest
Carries all in one to pass the test
Of the crowds watching eyes
On the stage is no disguise

Dancing balls of fire
Showed magic to the unknown
Smiling faces brightly colored
Saved what was forsaken

circus is a poem which portrayes the hardship of circus artist and the hidden agony of jokers, it is so wonderful watching the artists from gallery, , but the artists play with their lives to entertain us, thanx
