Diva Director

My voice is that of a Broadway star, 

Perhaps that of Idina Menzel, 

the vibrato of my frills  

sometimes cause chills 

down the backs of my enemies, 

who glare with the coldest shrill. 

My dance is that of a willow tree, 

Big and breezy, 

Leaves creating a canopy over all I love, 

shading those close to my heart, 

showering them in my dance in the breeze. 

My persona is that of a Diva, 

when I perform, I am the center of attention 

The first to memorize my lines, 

the first to know my blocking, 

but I am not egotistical. 

I round up my counters, 

and encourage the sheepish of actors, 

to project into the House like  

a wolf howling to the moon. 

I am the woman who  

performs during all,

Come hell or high water. 

The Diva who Directs 

is who I am, 

and I will not  

change.
