"The Circus" by C.J. Dennis: A cheerful, bouncing classic celebrating

the arrival of the circus, featuring elephants, acrobats on a dizzy swing,

and an India-rubber man.

THE CIRCUS
By C.J. Dennis
Hey, there! Hoop-la! the circus is in town!
Have you seen the elephant? Have you seen the clown?
Have you seen the dappled horse gallop round the ring?
Have you seen the acrobats on the dizzy swing?
Have you seen the tumbling men tumble up and down?
Hoop-la! Hoop-la! the circus is in town!
Hey, there! Hoop-la! Here's the circus troupe!
Here's the educated, dog jumping through the hoop.
See the lady Blondin with the parasol and fan,
The lad upon the ladder and the india-rubber man.
See the joyful juggler and the boy who loops the loop.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Here's the circus troupe

Carnival

Shake your shakers,

Bang the drum,

Carnival season

Has finally come!

Here is a short, fun poem about playing Skee-Ball :

The Roll of the Rollers

Upon the wooden lane so long,
We start our hopeful, rolling song.
With heavy sphere held fingertips-tight,
We launch the ball with all our might.

It climbs the hump, it takes the air,
And flies toward the circles there!
A clatter loud, a sudden cheer—
The fifty-thousand ring is near! [1]

Clack-clack-clack , the tickets fall,
The greatest prize of any hall.
No wealth of kings can e'er compare
To plastic rings and neon glare.
