Favorite Actor

Tough to say But I think the Duke His years in the spotlight Were definitely no fluke He fought the wars Won the west This giant was always At his best At the very end The Shootist And True Grit Will forever stand the test Happy trails John Wayne You were Without a doubt Heads above the rest

Hi there. NO, I never went to India. Sure wish I could see it. I studied up on tigers on google before writing my poem. Let me find a new one of yours to read now.

richard. this is sweet and sure to make Frank smile. (it's in his contest, right?) My hubbie is a big fan of this actor and I know he wishes he were born in that era. My sister adored the Duke and was always watching his movies. Are you a cowboy?

I think most guys wish they were in the wild wild west. Exciting to be a cowboy. I am not a cowboy, originally from NYC. More Wall Street than in me than hearding cattle. And yes it`s for the contest , but I was a great fan of John Wayne`s movies. Westerns my favorite but enjoyed his World War II flicks. Thanks for stopping at my sight...Rick
