A Day In The Life Of A Very Bored Child

To my three older siblings,
for being so fun...

Us four siblings sat
upon the stairs,
wondering what,
to do on that day,

being the oldest
my sister then said,
“lets put on a circus!
get to work straight away!”

hand written tickets
were distributed then
to a mother and father
awaiting our show,

costumes were made from nick
nacks just lying around
when it was time to begin,a hush
went over the crowd

the camera powered up,
new film was pushed in
mother looked proud and
dad had a grin

first came the conductor
at the grand age of eight
who nervously opened,
the much anticipated show,

there were trained dogs
and a clown
who lived up
to there rep.

and a balance beam girl
who suffered a trip
but the circus succeeded
as all productions do,

when put on by children
ages eight down to two
