THE FAIRGROUND BY FIONA CUMMINGS


The fairground

By Fiona Cummings

Life is a roller coaster

My heart beating faster

Too many ups and downs

In fear of crashing to the ground

Looking all around

Listening for every sound

Picking up peace’s

Smoothing out creases

The excitement of a high

Heading fast to the sky

Then dropping as though to fly

But life won’t let me glide

This is a bumpy ride

Then on the slide

Coming fast to the end

I don’t like it

I can’t pretend

I want to go on a gentle merry go round

Holding hands with my love

And hearing the noise of the fairground

Buzzing all around

A calm ride at my leisure

Let life be a pleasure?
