- This Mule's for YOU! -  I've only been a clown now, for just a couple years - I've found it's so much easier to smile through the tears. Each day I put my make-up on, I paint a big red smile, a plastic nose & funny hair - it makes it all worth while! If I but only make a single soul laugh out loud - To know I brightened up their day, leaves me feeling proud! With all life's disappointments that we struggle through each day, I've found it's so much easier, to cope with them this way. I know at times I'm bold & foolish - even "off the wall" - A clown gives up their dignity - the price is rather small... A "brighter day" is priceless & I think you'll all agree, That laughter is good medicine & darn cheap therapy! So if I seem a little "odd", resembling a Mule - Remember, it's my job to make you grin, and play a fool.  And for those of you depressed - who prefer the state you're in - I'm telling you, it's easier to bear it with a grin!  ~ Comedy = Sanity ~ -poetFemmeFatale April 17, 2000 "Laugh and the world laughs with you..." cry, and you're all alone. My version - pFF |

Bringing smiles to my face again Gen.  Thanks.I agree.. much easier to deal with if you can just bear a smile. They say that just smiling makes it easier, helps even more if you can brightens someone's day... but if you should ever find that smiling's not enough, don't hesitate a second use me as a vent, I'd consider it an honor to be one of the privlaged few. =) Keep up the good work, as long as you and Balladeer are around to keep me smiling I'll deffinitely make it a point to fit Passions into my day.  Now I've gotta go post a reply to that great inspiration to get outside. =) Later (Not too many poems can make me post a reply from work ya know. )< !signature-->"The storm rises up when the shadows descend every beat of my heart every day without end I will stand like a rock I will bend till I break till theres no more to give if thats what it takes I will risk everything I will fight I will bleed I will lay down my life if thats what you need every second I live thats the promise I make" I have no idea who wrote this... tell me if you know. =) [This message has been edited by WhiteNite (edited 04-18-2000).] |

"I'm only smiling on the inside, my grin is just skin deep....but inside I'm really crying, perhaps you'll join me for a weep..." -- Jack Nicholson "Batman" I know that your life sometimes throws curve balls at ya. Here's hoping we can teach you to swing outside the box and nail them suckers.... Rob |

Great poem! I honestly do think that if people would try smiling more often, the world would be a better place. "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." -the words of a friend |
