 remember when
the other side of the screen
we swooned 
❧✿❧

remember when
in darkened hall of intrigue
those eyes held us

the other side of the screen
places called  house
pit and balcony

we swooned 
for that was all we could do
those cinema days

This took me back to the good old days of going to the cinema once or twice a week when much younger I lived in Britain. Mind you there wasn't much on TV in those years immediately after the war!

All your words create an instant impression so economically.

I really like the closing haiku. It made me smile widely, while thinking about swooning... 😄

Happiest Sunday, Gillena.

He would have been a heartthrob in those cinema days, for sure! Great haiku.

Love your words of swooning Gillena! Lovely! Happy Sunday my friend!

Gorgeous! And I have a feeling that when we get back out, stopping to talk will be one of those indulgences.

I remember one time at age 16 I went to the movies with an uncle my age. We sat in the balcony and he smoked a couple of cigarettes. That was in Oregon, he also had his own car.

I know I'd swoon if I saw that face on a big screen. Ooh la la!

Rommy said...

It will be nice to go to the movie theaters again, but my couch is fine for catching me when I swoon.
