Colton and the Fair
As the Ferris Wheel turned; Colton looked up.
He pondered things as he sipped from his cup.
Suddenly a clown wandered up to him and honked his nose.
It was Pietro; his cheeks all aglow!
“What is the problem friend?” the little clown asked.
“I cannot decide. This is the matter;
Do I buy cotton candy or sugar-coated batter?”
The clown thought for a bit
And suddenly jumped.
“My friend, just sit.
My idea has me pumped!”
The sheep ran away,
Leaving poor Colton thinking.
“What a strange day.”
And he continued drinking.
Again, he was deep in thought;
When suddenly; “Splat!”
Colton’s cup suddenly dropped.
Pietro giggled “How was that?”
“I couldn’t get you cotton candy
Or dough that was fried,
But I got what was handy.
It was a custard-cream pie!”
Colton’s pie-covered face suddenly smiled.
Pieto giggled again and ran away.
The horse looked at the Ferris Wheel again.
“What a strange day.”
