do not mean to accuse you OF trying

more than merely comply with the

The Clown
The clown is a very funny man,
He makes you laugh whenever he
can.
He wears a face of pink and white,
At the circus he is always in sight.
First on his head, then on his feet,
Then he is back on the little cart
seat.-Alice Miller.
The Clown
A circus came the other day
1t settled in our town.
My father gave me money
To go and see the clown.
The freak was dressed in yellow,
Trimmed in red, green and white
You should have come and seen
him act;
It was a jolly sight.-Elmo Hunter.
