The Mark of the Z

| | | | (\ | *Guy Will- | iams (((used to | play Zorro On ((the Walt Dis- ooooo (ney) ((TV show For us, (We (had) (((never enough It was black and white,just so you know. He and his horse "Tornado" rose up, A daun- ting silhouette upright. With the crack of his flapping cape, A crescendo of sound and sight. Antonio Banderas later, Grabbed onto the cinema reins, With all new special ef- fects Releasing all colorless chains Bringing back those wonderful times Now, with a lady by his side. Cath- erine Zeta-Jones cast As "Elena" helped to turn the tide Now again a hero seemed real With the be- lief a wrong can go right A masked man but a pro- tector Ri- ding out quickly to fight Once long ago on a TV show They sang A fox so cun- ning and free The sword bearing vigilante, Zorro makes the mark of the Z!

I know! Same for me. The mask, the sword, great stuff! I thought Antonio Banderas was a natural pick in the movies. I liked him since Assassins came out!... Thanks for commenting my friend!.............80)

Yeah the first part is especially hard to read. I redid it many times and got it right, then when I submitted it, it flew apart so I had to try again. Whew!.....80)
