Tribute
A large glass of Verdejo, from Rueda
Now in her late seventies, she has retained her beauty. Bunned, silky,
silver hair; flawless skin untouched by chemicals other than moisturizer, covers
majestically-formed bones. A finely proportioned figure, no hour glass, but
balanced for poise and bearing. When she enters a room, the eyes of women as
well as men follow her. When she smiles, the earth ceases its rotation, if only
briefly. Her voice, now a trifle husky, still has enough eloquence and melody
to remind me of all those years ago, when I would watch her singing, on a black
and white, twelve inch television set.
