Star

*~*~*

Once upon a time a star was born

Out of the universe's gasps

Out of the power of God's creativity

Out of the eternal love's dust.

*~*~*

The star grew in peace for years

As the Mother Nature's hand

Would carve his very grace

The beauty of his mind.

*~*~*

Grown up in his full splendour

The star shines upon the sky of arts

His power cuts through all challenges' door

Making love grow in many hearts.

*~*~*

Ralph: DeFienning the Mystery

What is it about Ralph that makes you want more
Was it his role in Harry Potter 4
Some might say, it was his Hamlet on the Broadway stage
No wait, I know: the portrayal of Amon in Schindler's List
That man was full of rage
It definately has to be his voice, his talent, with good looks to boot
Add his role from The White Countess
Dressed in those finer suits
Whatever the mystery
You're adored by many
Happy Birthday, Mr. Fiennes
Mystery solved
It was your character in Strange Days
Oh what's his name.........
That's right Lenny.

10. From Danielle:

Dear Ralph Nathaniel,

I am writing from Canada. I am French speaking but will do my best. I have known you for little time, but since I noticed you (in Strange Days), I have tried to find out everything I could about you and your films. I could see The English Patient, The Constant Gardener, Schindler's List, and I remember seeing a movie about a love story taking place in ancient times, I do not remember the title, that was about 4-5 years ago, in a plane from Paris to Montreal (where I leave now), and I kept the memory of that movie because it touched me so much.

I think you are a very discreet and sensitive person with a great talent, and you would deserve to be much more known. I have always loved going to the movies, so have my three children (aged 18, 18 - twins! - and 14), and I love it so much when they are starring a special person like you.

I wish you a very happy birthday and hope that you will be successful in everything that is important for you.

From Danielle... to Nathaniel (I like this similarity and hope you do not mind)

13. From Gao:

To Ralph:

Those are just words,
express something
one by one,
but please jump the gap between them
and grasp those
floating inside

I know in the reality
you
are not as perfect
as I expect
but in my heart
you
are the pure idol
a sage
living in my dream
speaking in my talk
stimulating my work
and staying in my life

There is an Atlantic ocean
lengthen my distance to you
There is a gap
cut my communication with you
There is a day
apart the meeting between the sun and the star
But there is a heart
a heart
full of love
linking the gap
flying the distance
meeting with you
day by day
year by year
