Introduce
Let me introduce to you
Without any further adieu (ado)
The star of tonight’s show
Who is so very eager to go
He has been chomping on the bit
To be on this stage so brightly lit
Making his first appearance
For such an esteemed audience
He has rehearsed for days
In the hope of receiving the praise
For his Tony-worthy performance
Which to him is of the utmost importance
His lines have been memorized
Every possibility analyzed
He is such a professional
He is almost obsessional
His costume impeccable
He looks most respectable
This is his moment as he walks onstage
Everyone cheers, they are on the same page
He takes the microphone from the stand
When suddenly it is grabbed from his hand
What the heck said he
To the person he could see
You are embarrassing me in front of everyone
To which the voice answered, Sir, your fly is undone
Christine Bolton
In response to Word fog The Day: Introduce
Excellent rhyming and great comic ending. 🙂

Thanks Kristian. Just trying to lighten up some of my poetry! 😊
Yes I need to write some happier stories and poems, I do tend to get a bit grim sometimes. When I read them to my mum she always jokes and asks me when the main character is going to die! 🙂
That’s so funny! Poems are not always representative of what we are feeling, or are they? Hmmmm! Lol
I do hope not. But i wonder sometimes if there isn’t something subconscious about it all. 🙂
