Carousal Ride

Glint covered walls,

hanging festoons held up a sway,

cotton candy and strawberry ice

milling crowds upbeat and gay



Stomping horses in red red reins,

beady eyed ducks waddle with webbed feet

hares run about flapping ears

shuddering yellow cabins add to the beat



ting a ring a ring a ring

the lights do a bebop of their own

all this merriness in a march

just to be under the grand lady's gown



Hold on tight, the father shouts,

enjoy the ride while it lasts

you think you're going somewhere?

You’ll come back to the been pasts
