1) A Friendly Clown
On one corner of my dresser sits a smiling toy clown on a tiny unicycle--a gift I received
last Christmas from a close friend. The clown's short yellow hair, made of yarn, covers its
ears but is parted above the eyes. The blue eyes are outlined in black with thin, dark
lashes flowing from the brows. It has cherry-red cheeks, nose, and lips, and its broad grin
disappears into the wide, white ruffle around its neck. The clown wears a fluffy, two-tone
nylon costume. The left side of the outfit is light blue, and the right side is red. The two
colors merge in a dark line that runs down the center of the small outfit. Surrounding its
ankles and disguising its long black shoes are big pink bows. The white spokes on the
wheels of the unicycle gather in the center and expand to the black tire so that the wheel
somewhat resembles the inner half of a grapefruit. The clown and unicycle together stand
about a foot high. As a cherished gift from my good friend Tran, this colorful figure greets
me with a smile every time I enter my room.
