A Tribute To Charles Spencer Chaplin


      I bow to
                   First International Star
                   The Iconic figure of speechless cinema.
                    Revolutionary Actor
                    creating ceremonial precedence
                    carrying charismatic elegance
                     on success of tramp character as vagrant wanderer
                              ensuing mockery whirling enigma.

                Sweet, short silent Man acting on tricky plan
                Mustache butterfly, lips pressed
                Wearing bowler hat to impress
                Cute cane in hand, posing as clown to stand
                Cool calm, clad in cocoon of sarcasm 
               Always rushing in fun: Jumpy walk on right angled turn.
               Geometrical movement slipping silent.
                 
                   Charlie Chaplin cheerful chap
                      demanding deserving delightful clap. 

                      Humorous pretty pageant 
                   Glamorous majestic pleasant
                    Macrocosm of circus
                 Comical pose and postures
                 Funny witty gestures of super quality.
                                           The Global Celebrity.
              
              Artistic Realistic benevolence in aptitude.
              Precise Perfection in plenitude.
              My deep reverence
              Earnest admiration and adoration
                                      to Classic Comedian.
                      
               My emotive veneration
               for presaging emblematic errand
               on typical style tangling in derision.
                             Diplomatic Director on dauntless dogma.
                       
              I bow to
                          First International Star.
