Circus

I’m not a lover of the Big Top

With the contrived acts in the ring,

For I much prefer the circus of life

And the entertainment that will bring.

Which of course is what I write on

From observations of animal tamers,

Trapeze artists and those clowns

Just like many real world gamers.

Then there has to be a ring master

In charge of Big Top antics too,

Just like big shots in our lives

Wanting to boss about me and you.

That is the start of it, so my theme explained!

One Night Only

For a spectacular one night only

The famous entertainer is in town,

Or possibly an attraction venue

That has a show of great renown.

So obviously we’re all very keen

Not to miss a special one night.

But is it always as it seems,

And for you at this time, just right?

Because I have a thought to offer

That we probably all have our own

One night wonder to remember,

Though it may be little known.

For you cannot always make plans

As to what happens at certain times,

Because the best surprise events

Won’t occur with church bell chimes.

But we are happily bowled over

To walk in a wondrous ecstasy,

As your one night only events

May happen just as for me.

Thus this keenly sought one night

May not involve an entertainer,

Or that great attraction venue,

But cutting loose with no restrainer.

So go and cruise your life with joy

For it won’t always be just phoney,

As you awake in awesome majesty

That it’s not for one night only!
