Friday Flash 55 - Rest In Peace. Elizabeth - March 25, 2011




She was a living legend,
Stunning eyes a violet hue,
Her beauty made us gasp,
But she suffered her life through.

She spent her days in pain,
And eight times was a bride,
But when death came to call,
She had no husband by her side.


Elizabeth,
may you find
 that elusive happiness
in heaven.


I am participating in Mr Know It All's

    Proof, I think, that in the end our only true legacy is how we made others feel.

  13. One of the most famous people ever. She was a little before my time. My mom has been mentioning her just about every time we've talked the last few days.

  15. That is the end of an era, I think. She was in some really good films.

  17. Well, I was never much of a fan, but it's always sad when legends pass on.

  18. She was incredible... And I love that she left instructions to start her funeral 15 minutes behind schedule so she could be "fashionably late".

  23. A beautiful tribute to a beautiful lady. Love your writings. By the way, I just met a fellow blogger who has started a network of women bloggers in prime time of life. That is 50 and up. It's in infancy stage, but thought you'd like to connect. Just send an email to Ann at ann@spanielhill.com and ask her for the link. Your blog will be a terrific addition. Keri
