Happy's story

Many years ago
There was this man named Harry and he loved the children so.
He carried around balloons and put on the biggest magic show.
He only had one child who passed away when he was a young boy.
So since that day he always made sure to carry around with him a toy.
Because he was always smiling and dancing everyone called him the happy clown.
it's rare that you would see him frown.
Having his son was the biggest joy in his life.
One day his son was crossing the street and a icecream truck hit him and his wife.
His wife survived but the little boy died.
Instead of smiling all he could do was cry.
Instead of being called " happy" everyone started calling him The sad clown.
Words went around that he wasn't funny anymore and he moved out of that town.
Maybe that's what he needed to do to change his life around.
years have passed and because of one little child
He then started to smile.
From that day on Harry was called Happy.
He took out his old clown suit and started learning more tricks, for everyone to see.
He realized that being sad is not gonna help him.
That's when his smile started turning into a magical grin.
He told everyone that the sad clown is packed away.
And Happy is finally here to stay.
