A Day At The Circus

entry picture

 

The Ring Mistress

cracked her whip.

Puffing out her crimson chest,

and with a sweep

of her turquoise tail,

she let out a shrill whistle.


The lion holding back

a small shame of primates

with a chair

was so skilful.

I couldn't believe it

when he put his paw

in the beast's mouth.

They are so well trained.


The troupe

of health and safety inspectors

were very entertaining.

Jumbo sat patiently

on one of them

while another lectured him

on the avoidance of hazards.

The circus is so much more fun

with them.


Clowns were wonderful.

The best part was when

they walked on hind legs

and had a tea party.

Traditional characters

are timeless aren't they?

The vicar and those

blue haired ladies

farting and jabbering,

are such fun.


 

The main act was

the trapeze.

Definitely the best

anty climax ever.

They balanced huge leaves

above their heads

and walked on a wire

at the same time.

Fantastic.


All over!

Come on kids.

Back to the aviary.
