The Actress Poem by Tamara Beryl Latham
The Actress
Her form holds the scent of Jasmine,
Slight like Laura Wingfield and fragile
as pieces of a Crystal menagerie.
She moves,
as if balanced between dihedral angles of light
(like a star's dance of radiant energy)
with an alluring smile,
warmer than meadows of wildflowers
on an idle Day in Spring.
Thanks Rob. I already commented, but for some reason my reply is not appearing.
Why have you used ' Day ' instead of day?
PS In my reply, there is a spelling error. The line should read, 'I've woven her name throughout the poem.'
Day i the name of the actress. Crystal Jasine Day. I've oven her name throughout the poem. She starred locally in the play 'The Glass Menagerie, ' and did a fine acting job. Thanks for reading and replying. : -)

Such vivid and beautiful metaphors throughout your poem introduce the reader to an actress that sounds quite 'radiant'. In total agreement with Rob on this one!
Richard, so nice of you to stop by. I appreciate your critique and appreciate the sentiment you expressed. : -)
