This is the prop poem from a production of Much Ado About Nothing I was in back in 2004 at Interlochen - just found it in a stack of high school memorabilia. I am awash with nostalgia.
I used to think on thee with not but scorn
For thou spoke of me not but with disdain
and now I think thou note’st me fair and fain
I’d so note thee and not just blow my horn
I now would have thee be my own lady
with Fair hands my Rough soldier’s heart to school
and yet I fear though Notest me a Fool
with sense and wit becoming a Baby
I know I have a soldier’s bold brave part
to play; with thee I’m quick to make it stand
So you’ll not think me soft or weak at play
I wish to give thee both my head and heart,
my lips, my poniard and my soldier’s hand;
to stick with thee the morrow, past, today.
Well done, Prop Master.
