The winter clown frowns
in the summer sunshine
his blank stare muddles the fresh air
as a dragonfly bursts
his only red balloon.
In the park there are crisply colored flowers
that speckle the grass
where couples lay to discuss the politics
of new love and the world,
where a man has cultivated a clever new puzzle
for his terrier to unravel,
where a young boy carefully crafted a bed of shredded grass
to lie with
(though he has no plans of staying the night.)
Squirrels scurry
from branch to branch of the
trees that even waltz through the breeze together,
but this silly old clown
just stands there
not even realizing his makeup is fading
as the dragonfly zips away
to be free

 reports, 1d 14h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.62 Photography Contest: My Dark Summer=ByLaauraa
