Dancer

[elle_rahen]

When she dances to swan lake,
The sound is a story of wind
and it bends her to the melody like a reed
the music whirls her
and she has to have strong roots
to keep her touching the choreographic ground

I used to have a friend that danced. Every moment she made was beautiful and powerful. Each step and movement resonated how she felt, it was a powerful performance.
I can truly empathize with this poem and can vision each verse. deftly handled poetry.

It was hard to trying to describe it in such a short poem. I'm glad that you found it to be successful. Thanks for commenting.

It's short but it definitely has a soul and it's powerful one.

Fav lines: "...and she has to have strong roots
to keep her touching the choreographic ground."

Congrats.

This reminds me of a friend of mine too. The last two lines make me so excited, like she's gonna fly away.
