Circus Visions Comments

Just my opinion, but the last two stanzas beginning with 'we in the audience' are the poem. The images are nice, but that last part is absolutely the heart and soul. Have we been to the same carnival lately?

A celebration of some of the extreme capabilities of the human physique, it's bravery and it's humour. And not an exploited animal in sight. Excellent stuff finely presented.

Wonderful picture you've painted here, it's a different world, thrills, excitement, unreal in a way, but you brought the whole thing to life so well. Lovely. Love Ernestine XXX

I really like the sights, sounds and SPEED of this show, congratulations, Max!

This is really interesting, Max. When I watch something like you described, I often feel I have entered a dream (sometimes even a nightmare) and amazed as I am, I am usually glad when it is over. Your closing two stanzas make the poem more than a simple description of a circus. Good work. Raynette

Nice visuals throughout, and the 2nd to last stanza is terrific.

a delightful poem to begin the new year just the right amount of magic and wisdom flowing one into the other
