Morgan Freeman - a short Iregular Ode in Tribute


 Morgan Freeman place in my mind 
Forever you're my favorite  
Favorite male actor laureate 

Chauffeur supreme I remember 
Driving Miss Daisy everywhere 

Never complaining movie wise 
Assigned an undignified role 
Yet awards galore say, "Bravo"
 _ _ _ 

Addendum:                                    
Old man of my generation 
While you're still working I'm retired 

Upcoming movie: A Good Person

  1. Couldn't imagine how resilient and determined he is Jim, to tenaciously stay on knowing all the challenges of acting he is up against. Sidney Poitier
    perhaps triumphed against discrimination.

  4. Glad to know I'm not the only one who sometimes thinks about the extended career of actors and how they maintain that gift.

  6. Oh MY!! This resurrects wonderfully funny memories of youngest son, Chris, now 60 ... doing an amazing impersonation of him in Driving Miss Daisy.
