Night Dancer

The grace of a dancer in the night sky.

Is she ready
To make her grand entrance
Spreads her arms
For it's her turn to dance

Breathes, in, out
Lets her nerves settle down
She's so pretty
In her multihued gown

Takes her mark
And swirls across the stage
And one more time
Practiced movements engage

Lovely dancer
Her movements mesmerize
We applaud
And whistle at the skies

Night dancer
Pulsating 'mid the stars
Her movements
Capture us from afar

Leaping, swaying
She dances in the night
We're amazed
By the auroric light

She must leave
It's time for her to go
She will return
Another night, you know

We remember
The loveliness we've seen
The dancer
Who danced on Heaven's screen

(C) Copywritten 2003, by Karla Dorman.

Love this, Karla! The scene you paint is beautiful and original. The last line takes the cake - it's a very visual ending. Hugs,
Sheila
