That's All It Takes

Maybe tomorrow I'll see a new dawn.

Stretch my arms and give a big yawn.

Maybe my mind will be at ease

And always remember to say please.

 

I'm just a clown, don't let the paint fool you.

I earn my living trying to please the few.

Maybe tomorrow will be a new day,

And into your heart I will come to stay .

 

Some day the circus will come by again,

And you will see me wearing the same grin.

You will laugh till your belly aches-

To make a clown happy, that's all it takes.

very touching and emotional. i love the last line,

To make a clown happy, that's all it takes.

Clowns are there to make the children happy, and return they, too, will receive happiness in return when they see everyone's happy because of him. Great job on this poem!
