Far from 1955

 From Judge Doom to Doc Brown, he changed our lives

   Going forward in time in style

 And trying to kill Eddie Valiant was fun for awhile 

    Away in the sunset his Time traveling train drives

  Turning into a Teen-Wolf was not his best

    But being the little mouse made all children laugh and cry

 Now he shivers and shakes, putting a tear in my eye

   But being on Family Ties was his great quest

    These men, you may not know

  If you do, your childhood was great

    Watching their movies with the family just to stay up late

These two actors you see, showed me to always look for a bright tomorrow.

  

Author's Note

This poem goes out to two of the greatest actors of my childhood. This ones to you Doc and Marty, may you live in the hearts of people forever and always.

Of course, Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox, also two of my favorite actors and one of my favorite series of movies. They did lift my spirits and deserve a poetic tribute. I guess you must have taken Margo's advice, which was good. Otherwise this is very nice.

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

FINALLY someone who loves them as much as I do lol. They are such great actors, I was wanting to mention Chris's "Taxi" roll, but I didn't see where it would fit. I'm so glad you like it :)

[Kamari's]

Who didn't love the mask I sometimes think he's in movies I like because he's always been in my like like Eddie Murphy with nutty professor or dr.dolittle or for the nerds coming to America and vampire in Brooklyn

[Heaven James17]

I enjoyed it and I to am fans of the authors you speak of and truly agree whole heartedly with margo seuss.

[Tatiana Casali]

Sorry I misspoke there. I have heard of back to the future. woops.

[Tatiana Casali]

Yeah, I've never `seen` of one of the people you mentioned before (doc). I personnally did not connect with this writing. As you can see in my writing I express differently.In my opinion I think you should continue expressing your in depth emotions. Sadness/pain/happiness. Things of that nature. Express your deepest desires and heartache. I think that's the most beautiful a person can be. It shows they are human.

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

Oh, I'm sorry you didn't like it :(

[Tatiana Casali]

oh, I feel bad now. :(

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

NO lol don't feel bad :) everyone is right to have their own opinion

[Tatiana Casali]

Don't take it personnally. I still enjoy your other writings :)

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

[Margo Seuss]

Unfortunatley, I live in a box and am unfamiliar with these actors....but I can tell by reading this piece that you certainly enjoyed them.

I have a few contructive critisisms for you. First one is a mere typo in the last stanza of your second line. The second 'you' should be 'your.' I'm also not sure about the know and tomorrow ryhme..tomorrow doesn't have two m's. Haha! :) I just don't know about the flow of the last stanza. Give it some thought!! Read and re-read!! Write and re-write!! And if you get stuck, take a break! I once took a 3 year break from one of my works!!!! If you ask me, a piece of writing is never done!

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

Thank you for the critisism :) I understand too, I'll go fix it :)

[Brittany Zedalis]

I love Back to the Future. This is a lovely tribute.

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

Thank you :) I was crying a little when I wrote it lol, I mean, I grew up with these guys :)
