Screen Star Fade

The beauty fades, fades, fades away Treatments, surgery, balms, Beaujolais Only delay ever-creeping decay The face now ash gray ~ vanished her day July 26, 2020 Four Lines Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France

Take the 'i' out of the word said, and here's what you wrote: 'The four lines sad, the story of a lifetime.' How about that?! ~ Revisionist

A marvelous verse on stardom and the ravages of time, Gershon. This is quite an impressive entry. Good luck! :)
