Silver Screen Romance

by Colleen Barry
Completed 10-08-07

This wasn’t the role I was prepared to play:

A star crossed lover three million miles away.

I was thinking a silver screen romance,

With uplifting sonatas and a moonlit dance

Beneath the stars; or a transforming frog prince…

But not this.

Yet, Romeo and Juliet made it work;

Till death did they part.

It ended badly, but the plot is a start.

 

A silver screen romance…

The credits are rolling.
