Some remembrances of my trip to New York to see Antonio in his Broadway stage debut!

Unfortunately, my stupid digital camera quit on me just when I most needed it, so I didn't get any good pictures of our meeting on stage....but I did manage to take some pretty decent photos of our hero at the stage door after the Sunday matinee, which I was lucky enough to attend! Here are some of the best ones....

Here's the card I made for Antonio from the Chicas who weren't able to go to the show...click to see it full sized....

The Chiquitas surrounding him are, counter-clockwise from the top left: Chatty, Tammy, Delorita, Annie (well, actually she got to go), me (ditto *g*), Alina, Maria, Debbie, Pam (she got to go too) and Trish...:)

Catapult of Ardour

by Lorraine

A bevy of intrepid chicas journey forth,
for a man they hold in high esteem,
they will be there,
watches synchronized,
for 8 p.m. New York time.

With expectation,
reality aching to be met,
breathing the Broadway air,
at 8 p.m. New York time.

They take their seats,
the theater darkens,
closer, the man,
a curtain rises,
its 8 p.m. New York time.

Audible footsteps,
perspiration beads on his brow,
magnetic, tender smile,
glistening saliva on his tongue,
its past 8 p.m. New York time.

Antonio on the horizon,
blindfolded dance,
limbs in motion,
virile energy wafts,
his boosters sweet anguish,
that voice rising and falling,
its hours since 8 p.m. New York time.

Beau ideal,
light and shadow playing upon his features,
perfect embodiment of talent,
viewing all,
salacious depths and secret treasures,
hearts come out singing,
it all started at 8 p.m. New York time.
