For today’s post, I have decided to share a poetic tribute to Marilyn Monroe. I just had to share this, as we are coming up on the 60th anniversary of her death on August 4/5. She likely died late at night on August 4th but was officially declared dead on August 5th. But in any case, the world lost its brightest star in early August of 1962, so I wanted to write a tribute poem to honor her!
More Than Marilyn
by Maranda Wabik
Blonde hair
Sassy curls
Pageboy style
Platinum locks
Red lips
Spread in a smile
Revlon’s Fire and Ice
The smell of Chanel No. 5
White dresses
Accentuate
Perfect hourglass
And those famous
Breasts and ass!
Forgotten was her
BRAIN
Woman of intellect
Library of
400 BOOKS
More than
Just good looks
She was Marilyn Monroe,
But born just Norma Jean
She was More Than Marilyn!
