This is my tribute to the Oscar-winning comedian-actor Robin Williams (1951-2014). In it, I recite the poem "The Clown's Prayer" in memory of the late Mr. Williams. <br />(Lord,) <br />As I stumble through this life, <br />help me to create more laughter than tears, <br />dispense more cheer than gloom, <br />spread more cheer than despair. <br /> <br />Never let me become so indifferent, <br />that I will fail to see the wonders in the eyes of a child, <br />or the twinkle in the eyes of the aged. <br /> <br />Never let me forget that my total effort is to cheer people, <br />make them happy, and forget momentarily, <br />all the unpleasantness in their lives. <br /> <br />And in my final moment, <br />may I hear You whisper: <br />"When you made My people smile, <br />you made Me smile."
