First time theatrical performance I didn’t know what to expect Wondering how the audience would react Under the spotlight, I seemed to sweat Nervousness running through my body Will I remember my script lines Don’t let nerves enter the mind I must do my best Think on it like passing a test As I began to perform, my nerves had turned into confidence Enriched energy full of endurance I visualized my name on the marquee A star to be and become I followed the script without fail I was definitely fit for the part This is just a start Remembering encouragement from family and friends When the finale came The curtain came down and back up Loud audience applause Took a bow Even got a standing ovation Audience approved I am now more than ever enthused Theatrical agenda, I am ready to further explore.
