THE JESTER

It is said that many a truth ,

Is said in jest ,

Is the jester playing safe ,

In being the fool ,

Safe in his playing the fool ,

Who pays the clown that much
Attention ,

Those who do may hear something ,

That will course those who listen ,

Teach a tit bit of what what is truly going
on ,

All round us ,

Is the wise arse , truly wise after all ,

Is the funny guy saying ,

'The emperor wears no cloth's!''

A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down.......in the most delightful way! A long time ago quote from the them song from a children's show called Fran & Ollie; a long time ago.

My point? Well, sometimes it is the fool and a cup of sugar sweets passed among the people holding on to the bitterness of life and through laughter and wisdom (added for good measure) you have a lesson taught to the not so sure.

Is the jester playing it safe? For sure for true he is; he better be!
Great write, clever angle for a point of view all can ponder and enjoy.
