Age resounds
in each bone
and muscle. Not
unusual that her famous
face falls a bit loosely now,
as do her eyelids. But like
a tree, her roots are sturdy,
her carriage upright.
She is preparing to meet
the challenge of her swan song.
Hers is a true tale of rags-
to-riches.
Here she sits,in her glory,
on a stool at the piano,
in elegant dress, half-swaying
to rhythms, as she sings
the melodies that made her
a star.
I love this! I can just see her sitting there singing the songs that made her famous.
