Lights....Cameras....Action.... But for how long?

 

 

Spotlight shining

Eyes twinkle

Look at me

 

Youthful glow

Beautiful skin

Lips to die for

 

“Take One”

Red carpet tease

Cameras on me

 

Hourglass ticks

Time rolls on

“See me”

 

Pick me please

Not her...

Age is gone

 

Class has left

Wrinkles appear

I am replaced

[TL Boehm]

profound - this is a bit different than much of your more introspective pieces that I've recently read. Strongly written.

What an interesting concept for a poem! Fame is definitely fleeting and comes at such a high price. Good job.

[Katherine Wyatt]

Interesting poem. That is definitely how it goes for most of the people in show business,,Enjoyed it. I liked the way you used the bold red where you did..Just like the few moments of fame a person in that position might get to stand out..good job!
