Notes About The Poem

We saw Cher in Las Vegas in January 2011 - that was supposed to be her last tour... not sure how many of Cher's last world tours were promoted as HER LAST since then. lol

If you've got it, flaunt it! Go girl!

Cher

she once was young
naïve as they come
long black raven hair
of shiny silken softness

her deep eyes of onyx
that pierce in the night
she learned the ropes
then showed them all

deliberate and
most provocative
enticing scandals
in shameless gowns

but in the end
she never aged
the goddess phoenix
rising again and again

Caren Krutsinger June 9, 2019 at 3:00 AM Knowing Cher she will be having a "last comeback tour" when she is 99 years old. You have captured one of my favorite actesses and singers well! Line Gauthier June 9, 2019 at 9:21 AM You bet, Caren!

Jan Allison June 8, 2019 at 4:56 PM Your poem made me smile as there are so many stars who have comebacks and 'last tours' but just grab the chance to see them if they do tour again. she's definitely wearing her 'shameless gowns; well and I love you calling her a phoenix goddess - great description Line:-) hugs jan xx Line Gauthier June 8, 2019 at 5:16 PM Thanks for your lovely visit and comment, Jan.
