The actress
by
Samantha M Jones
I tried to take up acting, it really was a curse
I practised my delivery...I should've been a nurse
Standing on centre stage,I tried to exit left
Fell over all the furniture, the director was bereft
I know I'm no Dame Judy Dench, or even Judy Loe
But every actor has the dream of a smash hit Broadway show
Then all those non believers would flock to me in hordes
I'd be the greatest actress to ever tread the boards
Alas I'm only dreaming, myself I will console
'til Wednesday comes around and I sign on the dole
NEXT? Why don't you look at Bosses by: Francis Duggan from: Wonthaggi, Victoria, Australia
