The World is Our Audience
Life is a stage
for the parts that we play
for critics and fans
and plots that take turns
With no laugh tracks
no Hollywood sets
with no written scripts
it’s all hit or miss
It’s all material
Re-runs and sequels
There are no rehearsals
No second takes
Sometimes we wing it
Sometimes we practice
We live our lives LIVE
It’s all on the record

Loved the poem. Then it was enhanced and even eclipsed by the joyous photos and videos. What a great party! Many Happy Returns to you! (And btw that is one drop-dead-handsome man you got.)

Every child should be issued a t-shirt with this printed on it Colleen…

This made me happy… and yes we are all on the same stage, and we all the audience.
