Oft Shrouded

Have I ever told you?

Have I told you how much I like stories,
how they fuel me, inform me,  and make me
feel whole,

the stories I read,  see and  hear,
the costumes, the dancing, the song,
characters,  like me and so different 
as well, the truth, the real,
the absurd,

I like movement and bodies
performance and risk,

they lead me,

 from fear and
 uncertainty too, away
from obsession and grief,

 they take me right there
then back here

Have I ever told you how much I like

the curious sharing, the daring,  
and caring,  

the risk?


 I give thanks for the hope offered
and shared by the arts community in these
days of covid and beyond!!
