Coloring the World

Clowning Around

Clowning Around

Sometimes we humans seem
clowning around in the arena
of this world circus, entertaining,
enraging one another for no purpose.

At times we move and act like
characters in a burlesque,
playing our parts with the assigned
irony focusing on the futility of life.

Like pawns we are for the Grandmaster.
His expert plans are out of our ken.
All I must do is to play my role, my part
to His command for my ultimate good.
