Ginger Rogers (16 July 1911 – 25 April 1995) was an American actress, dancer, and singer.
Gingervitis
Ginger Rogers, as you know,
Made some flicks for RKO,
Where she soon became a pair
With immortal Fred Astaire.
Her fans in droves remain devoted
To screenplays that should not be quoted,
Where characters, as if by chance,
Are always breaking into dance.
In short, she was a shining icon
Before the days of clicking “like” on.

Eugène Ysaÿe (16 July 1858 – 12 May 1931) was a Belgian virtuoso violinist, composer, and conductor.
Discipleship
The spirit of Eugène Ysaÿe
Is still around, and this is why,
He mentored Gingold, then it befell
That Gingold mentored young Josh Bell.
