Doctor Zhivago, Lara's Theme Poem by Shaun Cronick

Doctor Zhivago, Lara's Theme

Rating: 5.0


There's an eternal piece of music,
From a love story filled with tears.
Which today is a classic movie,
That never fades after many years

A majestic tragic love story,
Filled with drama and romance.
And a captivating piece of music,
To put listeners in a trance.

So lovingly called Lara's Theme,
Remembered by its familiarity.
Magical music of a woman in love,
Expressing her joyful serenity.

Julie Christie starred as Lara,
Omar Sharif as Doctor Zhivago.
Sharing love that'll never die,
For Lara's Theme makes it so.

Great poem Shaun about one of my favourite films. I believe the music is by Jean Michel's father...forget his name. I also have the music with lyrics on vinyl; sung by Connie Francis...very moving; heart - breaking in fact. It's definitely a Lara's Theme inspired five from me!
