Poem about a Clown

"

I WANT TO BE A CLOWN… JUST THE HAPPIEST CLOWN.

YOU SEE WHERE I COME FROM…I CALL IT “HAPPY TOWN.”

TO SEE THE CHILDREN’S FACES, TO SEE ALL THOSE WITH SMILES,

THAT WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY, AS I RUN OUT THROUGH THE AISLES.

MY HOME IS IN THE BIG TOP, THE SONGS COME FROM THE BAND…

I WOULD LAUGH AND NEVER STOP, MY LIFE WOULD BE SO GRAND.

But ALAS THE TIME HAS SLIPPED AWAY, I’M SO MUCH OLDER NOW.

BUT THE CLOWN IN ME I’LL ALWAYS BE…

SOMEWAY… SOMEWHERE… SOMEHOW.
