Acting

This just came to me in class one day. It has received many positive reviews.

Acting is so much fun
Onstage as the only one
Or maybe on with a group
Focused like army troops
So many roles I can play
To rule or to obey?
Making the audience feel what's not
Am I a pirate or an astronaut?
Everything's so magical here
Up onstage with my hopes and fears
Butterflies and stage fright
Are keeping me company tonight
Singing high and singing low
We must go on with the show
I'm on the stage above the crowd
The floor is the sky and I'm on a cloud
Nothing here will stop me now
Unless I forget my lines somehow!
End of the play, people cheer and clap
Good job, my friends, that's a wrap!
