Day Dreaming Thespian

Proudly the stage whispers my name,
echoic episode plays in my mind.
Theatrical dance coalesces with shadows,
drollery and tragedy are intertwined.

The theatre breathes culture and life,
producing a journey for all to travel.
Lights, settings and scenery created,
perfectly staged, let nothing unravel.

"Encore, encore!' beats in my heart,
a day dreaming thespian in love with the arts.

Author notes

Stand, as in on stage.

You know when I read this I immediately pictured Renee..

She is always in my mind an "Actress" (if you could hear me I have a French accent in my head

You have wholly summed her up beautifully..

Now, you of all people knows where my heart lies. Yes, the stage. It has called me to stand upon it for many years. Just today I performed with my youth mime company at a Theatre here in Cleveland. I love the feel, smell of dusty, vintage clothing and scenery. I love the sense of being up there where no one can touch me but I must touch them. I love the rhyme of your poetic verses, and the cadence of the words. I love this Sam, and I know you knew I would.

Thank you for this entry in my challenge and I wish you the best.

Much Love Always ♥
