Quitting Poem by Martin Greyford

There's nothing that amazes a comedian
Like people coming in numbers
To see how he performs
And make them laugh all day night long.

The auditorium was already filled
And people were chanting his name
In the crowds
Before he even came on stage.

The announcer said
Welcome on stage the like
Performance of our renowned comedian today
And everybody rose up knowing his hour has come.

They celebrated and shouted
Loud on top of their voices.
He loved the atmosphere of the place
As he finally appeared on stage.

He greeted them comicly
And they responded laughingly.
He began cracking jokes
That broke the ribs of every attendee for hours.

After wards when the show was over
He revealed to them that he'll no longer
Be seen on stage performing
Due to reasons unknown.
