A Missing Elegance

An intoxicating female voice,
soft-spoken and demure
with baritonal qualities
of velvety allure,

The splendor of an era past,
that voiced the silver screen,
and euphony that's since fell silent
with the final scene.

Where have they gone, where are they now?
Their sound and charm are missed;
the lovelies from those golden years,
my ''mesmer-eyes'' once kissed.

Whose fleeting era came and went,
their memories still remain;
that rare resplendence of a time
we'll never hear again.
