The Dance Recital

The dance recital showcased Hip-hop, jazz and yes, ballet. The costumes and the music Put much talent on display. From pre-schoolers up to college, All their hard work guaranteed That they’d entertain us beautifully And they sure did, indeed. We were focused on our grandchild And she nailed her every move, Smiling ear to ear as we were Watching her get in the groove. For my first time in the theater Since we first felt Covid’s bite, I was thrilled with this production, Such an absolute delight.
