Gone With the Wind

Gathered with sister, my mother and kleenex, Oblivious to our red noses, facial poses and tears, Nudging each other with movie memory reflex - Each of us embrace characters long held as dear. We submit joyously to this continuous, intense escape Inside the lives of scandalous Scarlett and romantic Rhett. Trials and tribulations of civil war, deceit and love shape Heaven and hell into a dramatic, unforgettable duet. Torn, we watch as hunger, fear and surrounding violent war, Harms character’s hearts and more discouragements pour. Enemy destruction devastates Southern life and lore. While wishing true love’s fulfillment for Rhett’s desirous heart, Inevitably his sexy charm will wham our hearts like a wild lamb. No one should dare interrupt our favorite, dramatic film art, or Disturb Rhett’s last line, “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” ...
