Natalie Wood

July 20th – Natalie Wood’s birthday.  In 2012 there has been 74 years since she was born.


Born as Natalia Zacharenko, she was known as Natalie Wood.
As an actress she’s talented, as a person - ambitious and astute.
She was a beautiful woman exuding much joy, charisma, light.
Dainty and delicate, almost petite, Wood was of medium height.

Natalie had entered film and television industry as a little child.
While growing up into a teenager, she had become a little wild.
Connected to many men romantically, she’d married three times.
Considered Robert Wagner as Mr. Right – her lifetime paradise.

She had matured quickly professionally, sharing her versatility.
Natalie expressed her passion, persistence, hard working ability.
She had a good work ethics, devoted to whatever she’d undertake.
Wood played her characters on screen just right, without a mistake.

Appearing attractive, deep inside she could be vulnerable and fragile
That no one at the time of her emotional distress could’ve imagined.
Natalie would always show on screen as happy, playful and witty,
She was a legend, all times star – Hollywood’s sparkle and a sweety.

Today’s Natalie Wood’s birthday, we’re remembering her in our spirit.
Back in her times, in Hollywood she made a transformation or a pivot.
Wood was a little girl with biggest dreams, in which she had succeeded.
She would’ve accomplished more, but her life untimely was superseded.
