Carousel

by Charles E Minshall


__________________________________

Lions and tigers,
Horses and giraffes,
Gliding in motion
On their bright metal staffs.

Faces young and old
With heart warming smiles,
As they watch them parade
Their circular miles.

There's music and laughter
As people revel,
With merriment wrought
By a bright carousel.

I love to ride the merry go rounds, as my children call them... and this brings them to life! Always was one to reach for that shiny brass ring as I went around. (Still riding them)

The flow and rhyming of the poems seems to simulate the carousel to me somehow... it just seems perfect for this specific poem. Good job!
