Circus

Life is a circus
Some would say
Does that mean a dull grind
day after day
Or a series of adventures
With new skills to learn
Maybe with some stress
to grin and burn

Life is a circus
Some would say
Populated with clowns
sinister or cliché
But how about the strongman
Or the lion tamer
In a circus there are
many entertainers

If life is a circus
What do we see
What does it mean

for you and me?
