Wicked, A Short Film Poem

by Betty Jo Tucker — Read all 96 poems by Betty Jo Tucker

The short film poem below is my tribute to the wonderful dancers in WICKED, an exciting musical release. .

Monday, December 9, 2024


Poem Artwork

 

My daughter and grandson took me to see WICKED. in a wheelchair. It was my first inside a real movie house in 2 years. So everything was exciting to me! But the dancers delighted me the most. 

 

In WICKED, dance covers the screen.

It’s like a Wondrous movie dream.

 

I’d like to contact dancers all

To give them another dance call.

 

But maybe that’s already done.

For Part Two. So won’t that be fun?

I'm so glad you were able to get to a real theater once again and enjoyed Wicked.

I haven't been to a theater in many years. In my wheelchair, I had to sit down in front of the screen and the sound was nearly unbearable it was so loud, while the air conditioning was so cold I nearly froze.

I enjoy watching movies on my big screen TV with closed captions now that my hearing was destroyed by that Coast proximity to the speakers in that theater.

I'm happy that you were able to get out after two years, dear Betty. As far as I'm concerned, your daughter and grandson are heroes in this little story. So glad that you enjoyed the movie, and thankful also that you are still writing. All the very best to you and your family. Holiday blessings... rlc
