BEWARE OF THE JESTERA Poem by DONALD EISSLERBEWARE OF SMILING JESTERSBeware of the Jester I think I need my unicorn To take me away to fly. I need another dream, As my other went awry. . Dreams are very special They can seem to come alive, But like a pretty flower In cold they don`t surviv.e . You must be very careful If living out your dreams, For what you think is real Is not always what it seems. . Beware of a smiling Jester He may be the infernal king. Faking love and happiness With a smile he does bring. . So if you see that Jester Better wake up really quick. Don´t let him fool you That smile could be a trick. . He can make you comfortable By being oh so very kind. But you wake up one morning Finding he had made you blind . So if you rode your unicorn Better saddle him and fly. Don`t take any chances. Don´t even say good-bye . For that Jester has a way To draw you right back in. That warming joyful smile It´s a smirk, its not a grin. TK © 2012 DONALD EISSLER |
