-Good artwork and presentation, kahpot.
-You wrote a good poem with a good topic.
-A very good opening line, followed by
a good message about not being
possible to capture pure passion.
You either have it or you don't,
or maybe you have some; it
would be hard to live up to this model.
-Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you, I think passion can be displayed but rarely captured or learned, one must own it, as always very much appreciated****kahpot

She simply possessed that unbridled passion in spades, loved being in front of the camera and knew instinctively how to make love to it. Your 5-3-5 lune verse perfectly captures that particular essence and its illusiveness. An excellent entry. Well done, Kahput, and good luck! Debbie

    I think she was just a natural in front of the camera. But her private life was a bit of a mess. She was no bimbo, very bright and was ambitious for more prestigious acting work, as well as longing to have a family, none of which she achieved.

Although she was a physically beautiful woman, that just what she was, physically, I think she had real problems living up to creation thst she was, as we all do,, this is an excellent work, Kahpot, blessings Roy

She will always be remembered for her beauty and passion and for her innocent vulnerability. She felt every emotion and displayed it. I enjoyed your fine poem for the contest, love Dolly x x x

Kahpot,

Those three lines are short, but the message is powerful. How do you tame a passion? I guess one way is to write about it. It puts things out there for you and the reader to analyze.

Well done my friend

Cecilia

I like your Lune poem and picture presentation supporting - Marilyn certain is one of the best known people in our country and beyond- can remember her way back in the fifties- a favorite calendar model- your poem is well written- can ever be caught nor tended - nice - no replica will ever match the living person-
Good Job - Alan

This is an awesome lune poem with an image from an artist I see on fanartriew. I was too young to know about Marilyn Monroe but I've heard from my parents in the past. Best wishes, Alex

    Thank you, Alex, yes, back in the day (my day) she was in every boys mind, as always very much appreciated****kahpot

    I've heard about that. I think it's good she wasn't a twig. Girls need that sense of self these days. The internet might have hurt her career as people judge so much now. Good night from the US, Alex

This is a lovely Lune piece. I didn't realize Marilyn was in such great shape.
Your words are so powerful. "unbridled passion can never be caught nor tended" you're either passionate or not. I wish it was contagious sometimes people out there need a little more passion these days.

*sigh*... Such a beautiful (and sadly, at least in my case because it gets me into ALL kinds of trouble...) TRUE poem.

Best of luck in the contest. I LOVED it! (And Marilyn.)

Sam Shaw's iconic shot is likely among the best 100 shots ever snapped, and as for Marilyn I question how passionate she truly was, since she was likely used along her star-studded way.
