The child who was born upside-down

The child who was born upside-down

Thought a frown was a smile, and a smile was a frown.

He wore on his foot, a golden crown

And he joined the circus from town to town.

Omg! This is a mind blowing piece!
I loved the crazy imagery and the sad end, although I feel that you might not have intended to make it sad but rather happy for finding a place in the odd world.
Great piece!
Keep sharing your wonderful work with us!

Yes, I meant for it to be a happy ending but I'm glad you could find another interpretation and would really like to know more about it!
Thanks a lot for the comment,Jyoti.

A very clever poem...it endears itself to me in telling me its not bad to be different. Indeed, sometimes, those who are different are happier and wear the golden crown. Very creatively written, Nirupama. Pen On!

[Nirupama.H]

Thanks a lot, Divya.
I'm glad you could relate with it.

This is very well done. A happy type poem. It seems there is a bigger story within the poem. But maybe not. It is a fun read.

[Nirupama.H]
