Life: Center Stage

(LIFE .. . Center Stage)

Upon the passing of time,

I didn’t know it could be,

An opportunity so grand,

To set a foot on stage . . . .its me(smiles).


The responsibility is so great,

To run a leading role,

To be a shining Star,

In a production of Life to go.


The magical light and fireworks,

From dynamic sight and sound,

To find my inner self,

In a production so profound.


Will I forget my lines,

Can I raise my voice to sing,

The stress of vast oppression,

To a gentle meekness, a tear of joy to bring.


Line bay line and day by day,

I’ll give the best I can,

It matters not a talent to spot,

But really just who I am.

me again...last stanza line by line not bay I assume. I'll try not to be critical in all of your poems. I really liked this one. The sense of life as just a stage production in which we have ultimate control, and yet unsure if we will goof it up.

Wow, I knew that you would have some good stuff!

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
