I always had a special feeling for Marilyn. IN my mind, she's Norma Jean, still. I feel very moved by this one, Marge. "Every man dies. Not every man truly lives." Braveheart Kathleen |

Marge this is like a story of her life... a wind up doll, but pretty as a ballerina. Sad life she lead. Good poem. Hugs, Deb |

Very creative and true Marge! Her life was filled with beauty and great tragedy and your poem is a well expressed portrait of that. I feel that many of the actresses of that time were "pretty ballerinas and wind-up dolls" as well, especially Judy Garland Take care, Melissa The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams |

Kathleen~ She was certainly Norma Jean, for in essence she was always the child. BloomingRose~ Yes, I'm sure she tired of the spotlight, but the music played on ... Marsha~ How wonderful to know that you were an admirer also. Melissa~ Yes~ Stardom often has a very high price. Thanks for the reply. ~*Hugs*~ to all. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Karilea~ Thank you - it is a tiny little piece that is quickly tucking itself away in my heart. I just knew you'd find it and enjoy it. So pleased to know you did. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
