Good word count and presentation here... Descriptions of James are a bit dry and do not seem to offer much depth to the reader... That face was certainly a heartbreaker though!! Good luck in the contest.

    Glad you enjoyed the pics
    My all time favourite is east of eden , followed by Rebel without a cause.

    Giant I didn?t like the film but I enjoy watching young James .. I?m not a fan of the other two main actors and the narrative was slow and far too long .

Love it! A great mini biography in this naani poem. Your tribute is neatly contained and I like the way that his real life morphs into his fiction and, in the end, becomes indivisible. A strong contender! Good luck! Debbie

    Sad he died so young.

    I love East of Eden followed by Rebel Without a Cause.

    The only good thing in the Giant was James , young James . ( wink)

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

Your Naani poem effectively encapsulates the essence of James Dean's life within the constraints of the form. The first two lines convey his rebellious persona, drawing a parallel between his real-life demeanour and the characters he portrayed. The third line evokes a sense of danger and thrill while the final line captures his tragic death. The rhyme scheme adds a musicality to this poem. Nicely done.
