Performance Poems
Lake Worth Annex 2006 by Suzae Chevalier
Sun shining brightly in the sky, Jim is watching with keen eye.
For he notices props set up for audience to see,
used in “Sarah’s Special Birthday” reading.
Palm Beach photographer shows up soon,
taking photos at high noon.
Children wear costumes with wands in hand,
bringing magic to Krendoll land.
Melodie pops out of box, she is happy with no socks.
Now Razel doesn’t show her face,
Happy story for children she has no place.
Then UniCandle unicorn lights the cake,
making children anticipate.
for there is magic in the air,
will Sarah Star receive her present with moon beam glare?
Happy ending does unfold, Suzae the storyteller just had told,
A rhyming poem with characters with special powers,
This all happened within an hour.
Books where signed on the spot, along with photos that where shot,
to capture the happy memories, of this day in Lake Worth city.

New Website Suzae.Co – Poem by Suzae Chevalier
Suzae.co is a website that will show-

So stay tune for more

Mn Fringe Festival 2003 by Suzae Chevalier
It was year 2003
Mn Fringe Festival I was in with Melodie.
Friends from Iowa came and played
played Krendoll character on the stage.
Melodie was hidden and they had to find
objects to melt her and make her celebrate in time.
Celebrate her birthday and become a Suzarian Star princess at last
Razel was waiting in the lurks and she would ruin it if given a chance.
Now, my show was original for I am a rogue
Most shows at Mn Fringe Festival are commercial and a bore.
The word Fringe means to be on the edge
they need to bring more shows like that
to Mn Fringe again.

Ellie Is Crowned Princess 2003 by Suzae Chevalier
Madeleine gives the princess
Ellie a beautiful flower or purple.
Friends line up to give gifts for the
the Birthday girl.
Her friends came from far and wide. To be apart of Ellie’s .
Special day and by her side.
Madeleine will
place a gold crown on Ellie’s head-
she is very happy from what is said.
Soon she will be a year older and is thrilled with it all.
She once was a girl that was small

Palm Beach Improv by Suzae Chevalier
Melodie adores Stevie D
she compliments his style of dress to a T.
She has the memory of going to City Place
Stevie goes on the Improv comedy stage
Stevie does comedy and entertains.
Melodie laughs with Jimmy Dean-
it’s a funny act but not very clean!
Then Jimmy is next to go on stage
his act is funny it’s all the rage.
Melodie laughs at comic Jimmy Dean-
it is one funniest acts she has seen!
Melodie is next–
she is with Razel puppet and me.
Lighters light up in the air
wild whistling everywhere
Razel yells without a care
“You know why I have no pupils?”
right before Melodie can jump in-
Razel has finished her line with her evil grin.
People are shocked and don’t know what to say
they were roasted by an evil puppet
who laughs away.
Lights go out and Razel starts to shout
I bow with the girls before I walk out.
What a time in 2005
where the Improv Stage comes alive.
Sharing the stage with Stevie D, Jimmy–
Razel puppet and Melodie!

Robert Santiago Likes My Act…Candice West Photographs
Comedy Cruise Lines judges had eyes on me–
performing with only me.
Miami Herald photographer Candice West
took photo that was in color, not like the rest.
Interviewed by the Miami Herald that day
Robert Santiago to see what I had to say.
At the Improve Comedy Club in the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel
I got to make the judges laugh and did quite well.
I told Robert, “I live my life on the edge–
I look forward to this” Enough said.
Robert Santiago emailed me later that day–
said “You are off the chain–
Thanks Robert, improv is what I do–
my act never the same!

LAKE WORTH LIBRARY READING
Sun shining brightly in the sky
Jim is watching with keen eye.
For he notices props set up for audience to see
used in “Sarah’s Special Birthday” reading.
Palm Beach photographer shows up soon
taking photos at high noon.
Children wear costumes with wands in hand
bringing magic to Krendoll land.
Melodie pops out of box
she is happy with no socks.
Now Razel doesn’t show her face
Happy story — she has no place.
Then UniCandle unicorn lights the cake
making children anticipate–
for there is magic in the air–
will Sarah Star receive her present
with moon beam glare?
Happy ending does unfold
Sue Chevalier the storyteller just had told
A rhyming poem with characters with special powers
This all happened within an hour.
Books where signed on the spot
along with photos that where shot
to capture the happy memories
of this day in Lake Worth city.

THE LAKE WORTH HERALD
The Lake Worth Herald records events in Lake Worth town
Mark Easton works hard making sure Lake Worth Herald paper gets out.
It’s Wednesday afternoon and the printing press is running
all of Mark’s stories are real life, serious and also funny.
The Lake Worth Library had an article on me
I would be doing a reading by the Lake Worth library.
It was November 2006 and I was on Lake Worth Herald’s cover page
sitting on birthday chair where children celebrate their age.
Lake Worth Herald is printing my new poetry book
-the one you are reading- soon also on the Nook.
Mark was gracious and helped get my book right
he is friendly and easy to work
editing my book to make it out of sight!

SUNDAY SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
Children can’t wait to celebrate–
with birthday cake.
They dress in costumes that
are colorful indeed–
they dress up like a princess
or a boy with beads.
They each have a jewels in their hands,
they act it out in fun land.
The room was a full of laughter
the adults upstairs did hear
never before all this cheer.
