Best Marilyn Monroe Poems
Screen goddess Marilyn Monroe
Rustling whirled dress with thighs that glow,
Her stockings were quite a plenty
To cover unshaved limbs, so hairy.

Sassy Lady
A blond bombshell beauty,
Sensual cornflower blue eyes
That dropped men to their knees
I watched that
Sassy lady one night
On the southwest corner
Of Lexington Avenue
And 52nd street
In a white dress
I listen to the
Click, click, click
As she walks by
In high heels
Mesmerized
With the sway of her sexy hips
As she turns and walks away
With a glimmering
Spark in her eye
I can read her mind
To her surprise
Over a subway grate
Her dress is blown upward
With the blast of warm air
Embarrassed
She turns back
Looks my direction
With a playful flirtation
My excitement arouses

Wore no panties you know
Knew just how to impress
With the wind and that famous white dress

Marilyn Monroe
of whom the world was fond,
a political bomb shell...
The original Died Blonde.
Marilyn Monroe
Many hear that name and cringe
It's been said that she was off her hinge
But what if she were born to a wealthy home
She may have been a name unknown
Say her parents had given her a head start
Paid for a college degree in fine art
Would she have kept her birth name and closed her legs
Been held together with high society pegs
The answer to this question is not opinion, but fact
No one will ever know, so watch your mouth and have tact
She was an exquisite lady built from turmoil and sorrow
Not a dime in pocket, even her name was borrowed
Do you know what it's like to have nowhere to turn
My guess is you would struggle to discern
Reba said it all when she described "Fancy"
Fewer choices, less foundation, some simply can't see
So before you judge, try wearing her high heels
With a wink and a chuckle, enjoy fine meals
Mr. President may be married to a lady on a pedestal
But if he were happy with her, do you think he would gamble
Perhaps she was kind and thought First Lady was her calling
But with food and shelter, would you hear her bawling
Many would disagree with these words I have spoken
They are probably at home, in their hot tub soaking
The point of my defense is not to justify
But give you a thought, in case have no supply

....“Marilyn Monroe's Magical Moment In Time, `Coming Soon!`” *
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I knew then { when under her first film contract } what I had known when I was
Thirteen and walked along the sea edge in a bathing suit for the first time. I knew
I belonged to the public and to the world----not because I was talented, or even
Beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anyone else. The public was the
Only family, the only Prince Charming, the only home I had ever dreamed about.
I didn't go into the movies to make money. I wanted to become famous so that
Everyone would like me and I'd be surrounded by love and affection. ~
* "Marilyn Monroe"
The new book “Fragments” refresh the
The image of larger-than-life American.
The “fragments” do ignite many questions
Of what turns a human being into a legend.
Personal excellence, exceptional charisma
Intellect, strength or beauty? Or it can be
Unusual capacity to engage the hearts
And enlarge the dreams of the admirers.
She echoed her rage, discontent and sorrow
She notes, “ Not a scared little girl anymore”
Her youth was marred by abandonment
Her three marriages ended in divorce.
She wrote in her poem when married to *Miller
“Oh silence, your stillness hurt my head — and pierce ears.”
The most contentious aspect of Monroe’s early years
Is the possibility that she was sexually abused.
Three years later she wrote, “ I will not be punished
Or be whipped, or be threatened or not be loved
Or sent to hell to burn with bad people
Feeling that I am also bad” alludes to devotion
To faith and her struggle with guilt.
Millions of words have been devoted to her
Few of them were written or said by herself
And the people who knew her well are no more.
Yet her inner life remains mysterious
A subject of reverie for biographers and writers.
Oceans churned on her brow, wind swept the leaves
Of her life into dust storms, flames leapt in mirrors
Of her eyes dwelling in a penumbra of life and death.

Contest: My Favorite Movie Star by Judy Konos
I feel empty,
Or feel too much
Like Marilyn Monroe
Like me,
What goes on through our heads
Only we would know..
We just wanted love,
Without any conditions..
We've known a form of love
And its many renditions
But it wasn't real, nor was it true,
So we gave ourselves up,
To be with who
We thought would complete us,
However, we could not trust,
Our anxious minds lit up the night
With silly thoughts and thoughtful rhymes..
All we want is to be loved,
More than anything,
I just might,
Close off my heart and seal off its cracks...
All I wanted was our love to leave sweet tracks,
But all I can feel is nostalgia and woe,
Very similar to Marilyn Monroe...
Love is, and was, our goal,
To find the person to make us whole,
But all we got was hatred and were berated,
Like we didn't deserve to fill our heart,
And it tears me apart,
Like other beings,
We need love,
We need that other to complete us like a glove..
Like Marilyn Monroe,
I've been beaten down, and felt trapped
Inside my own head and heart,
But I haven't snapped...
Like Marilyn Monroe,
I keep standing strong,
Not losing hope..
That one day my love will come along...

I could of hugged you once
Even wrote a letter on how I felt
But you left us way too soon with the angels
You inspired me -many others I'm almost certain
You took the stage as your own
Broadway missed an angel
Being the actress you became
With just fond memories of you
You are still and will always be
America's sweet heart
With that smile to melt many
You inspired me to write and become who I am
Myself
But heaven wanted you quick with bliss
That angel who inspired transcend all
True of courage and laughter and faith
Worlds greatest star I'll forever miss
My favorite star that actress like you
Legacy always cherished never gone

Contest for Frank h.-favorite movie star
For 'Guess Who' contest sponsored by Margarita Lillico
Born in the abode of the angels,
a blooming rose beautiful and coy;
Glance even from different angles,
as always you were a world of joy;
You rose to dizzy heights and stardom,
there was a time all you touched was gold;
Life of parties in glitzy filmdom,
t'was tragic to see your life unfold;
Caught in the murky web of showbiz,
you tried to be the part of it all;
Many marriages, heartbreaks, never is
easy to get over, and play ball:
Health took a turn for the worse for you,
but you neglected it to stay on top;
A magnet as controversies grew,
you were from a unique field and crop;
Hollywood is a scary place love,
should've known before diving headlong;
it has robbed your sweet innocence dove,
now, sleep ports you to where you belong.
Marilyn and Elvis, iconic, and well-loved, cherished, beloved.
Loved and beloved in the same sentence? Only for these two.
They both have a vulnerability and a tragic back story
Elvis had to live for his twin, Aaron, who died in the womb
Marilyn had to reinvent herself, so someone would love her
Both unaware of how beautiful they were; neither understanding
We who grew up in the sixties wanted to fall in love with them
They were both edgy, a bit out there, classically unique, daring.
They both caused parents to shudder, and talk.
Anyone who can make Ed Sullivan blush is okay with me.
They were sex symbols, without trying to be.
Okay, Marilyn tried. All Elvis had to do was give you his look.
That smoldering look that made you gasp
They were our beautiful people, our icons,
The ones we all wanted to be; the ones we would be
When we grew up. We all aspired to be Marilyn and Elvis.
Better yet, Marilyn and Elvis.

Nothing Like Marilyn Monroe,
