Star of the Show

Narrate you own life's story and tell you own life's tale Don't leave it up for grabs or even up for sale! Write down your own life's story before the others do Wading through words and phrases that aren't remotely true... Plan out your own life's story before it's done for you- and you're stuck acting out a life that you despise and rue. Plot out your own life's story or at least, Act Two (or Three) Rewrite your script, if needed to set your spirit free! Dress yourself with color costume yourself with care Create the character you want to be and strut with catwalk flair! Design and build your life's stage or at least, rearrange the props and play your role with moxie not caring if it flops... Create your own life's story as producer, director, star- and then kick back & enjoy the show no matter how bizarre! Be your own show's critic ignoring all other reviews Lavish your life with praise acknowledging cast and crew. Become your very own fan club awaiting each scene of your day Taking joy in each thoughtful detail of your glorious, quirky play!

Hey, S.S., I started highlighting my favorite stanzas, and the entire poem was highlighted, so it is a FAV for me. This is how I want every single person I meet to feel! I am glad you do!

Too cool, had to "Fav"; I love it, especially, "Dress yourself with color costume yourself with care Create the character you want to be and strut with catwalk flair!"

This would make an AWESOME SONG! I hear a guitar strumming... Awesome piece! xomo

If it sounds that AWESOME, it must not be my guitar strumming (my musical attempts are atrocious)! Thank you, my friend! ;)
