Audrey and Sidney - a Class of Their Own

Two stars of a former age
they were a class of their own
superlatives cover them all over
bound for stardom before been known

Firstly a real lady of regal renown
Ms. Hepburn indeed Audrey by name
this lady was an actress so lovely
so attractive even before her true fame
