Poem Artwork





When Ballerina is sleeping,
Little Shoe wants to dance

She waits for the light to
shine through the tiny keyhole

It’s her cue to come out and
dance in the moonbeam

She hums one note and her
satin ribbons spiral up to
position.

She hums another note and
Little Shoe starts to dance
to the rhythm of the twinkling
stars.

‘round and ‘round they go
leaping and twirling, jumping
and prancing

When Ballerina lifts the lid
on her box and peaks through,
the music begins and Little
Shoe dances up the moonbeam
wearing her prettiest smile

Tirelessly, she jumps from
star to star, landing on one toe
in pastels of glitter

And as the music slows the
ribbons tie a beautiful bow
and Little Shoe takes a final
turn and takes a bow on the
very last note

Oh, Marilyn, this is not just precious, it is... not just sweet, it truly is, it is also gentle and pretty... this touched the quiet place in my imagination. The thought of it alerted me to the birds chirping. I do believe, dear poet, that my heart grew. This reminded me that my heart can listen... it and I absorbed this lovely piece. katy xox

Makes me think of a magical musical box.
Love this, even though I had to change its colour to read.
Has a Russian folk fable feel..
