You played the part
Of America’s sweetheart
But became so much more
Rest in peace,

“I am a doctor, not a magician!” Leonard McCoy

Homage to DeForest Kelley (1920-1999)

dfk-1

I am a doctor, not a doorstop
I can go on nonstop
I am a miracle worker
Maybe even a tearjerker
Concocting cures for all ailments
I have the treatments
No matter if my patients
Be alien or human
Even if the Yeoman
Came down with the flu
I have the cure and the clue
On what to do
So maybe I am a magician
The premium edition
And even that green blooded
Gosh, darn, crud it…Vulcan
Has to admit it
And I am loving every damned minute!

A voice like thunder
Presence filled with wonder
From pre-med
On to the stage
Many a great characters
Taking us into adventures
But lucky were us nerds
When the voice of Darth Vader we heard
Other than that?
Well, of course, many happy returns!

Absolutely fabulous
Absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely hilarious
Absolutely flawless

Laughter is eternal
Completely universal
If I could not laugh
I would be terminal

Thanks for everything so far Ms. Betty
Throwing your way some confetti
What ever more you can deliver
I am totally ready!
Many happy returns,
Betty!

“I live right in front of my daughter.
I have a little house right in front of her because
I can stay in touch. It’s like a little commune,
and it’s very nice, because you can be close.
I can see my granddaughter.
I live very close to my brother, too, and my son.
We’re a very close family”
Debbie Reynolds

She had grace
She had style
A comedic sense
Which made us smile

A true star
Shining, now and forever
For us fans near and far

Happy Birthday to Nichelle Nichols

From science fiction
To science fact
From Lady Actress
To Lady Astronaut

A many of myths
You have broken
A multitude of gifts
And truly outspoken

An eternal beauty
With a sense of duty
A voice like an angel
With an attitude of the devil 😉

Uhura, Nichelle
We’re so very glad
Onto our screens you fell
Without you we’d be sad

This might sound a cliche
Live Long and Prosper!

Carrie Fisher

RIP Carrie Fisher

main-featured

Actress, writer, a super hero
Your delicate frame, reminiscent of a sparrow
In your mind a giant, a role model for tomorrow
You played a princess on the screen
For us, you’ll be, the truest of royalty ever seen

May the Force be With You…Always.

Saara, Saara, Saara Aalto
Singing in bass or alto
From the country of reindeer
With the voice of an angel
You won our hearts
You killed in the charts
You are a true master
Of your talent and art!
