under the big top

ladies and gentlemen

boys and girls

children of all ages!

i found myself at the circus this afternoon

i am not particularly fond

of circuses, but, in spite of myself

i couldn't resist the colors,
the smells,
the excitement of
the big top

it's easy to become a kid again
among the clowns, the popcorn

the balloons and the elephants

(this is a google image, but I just couldn't resist!!)
