<poem> | |||
An afternoon nostalgia | |||
Television show | |||
You spoke in silhouette | |||
But, they couldn't name you | |||
Though the panel were very polite to you | |||
But I remembered you | |||
Friday nights 1969 | |||
ATV - you murdered every line | |||
Too old to be a child star | |||
Too young to take leads | |||
Four seasons passed | |||
And they AXED you | |||
Nervous juvenile | |||
- WON'T SMILE! - | |||
What became of you? | |||
Did that swift eclipse torture you? | |||
A star at eighteen and then-suddenly gone | |||
Down to a few lines on the back page | |||
Of a faded annual | |||
Oh, but I remembered you | |||
I remembered you | |||
