--A Star Danced--

* A Star Danced* So ebony soft is indeed this night. However, only to be lit by a dancing star. I watched with profound amazement, At all the ballet moves it knew from afar. Bringing back my childhood. With its grace and ballet elegance. You see, night is like a star or firefly, Whose glory sparkles mostly only at night. It's been a lifelong mystery to me~ But it is when the sun is gone, And only then, I am fully alive and truly me. Darkness divine, emblazons my quill, like a quadrille. It's only with silver moonbeams and twinkling stars, I feel as a divinely, embraced, celestial one! The night is my day, and may it forever be. For God's nightly heaven, brings out the best in me. July 8, 2020 11:15pm PST Dedicated to my fellow ballet partner and Cousin Madelyn, and our ballet memories and joys with Miss Leila! Thank you for the footlight memories we shared. Love you~ "Blue Danube" Panagiota

I watched with profound amazement,.. At all the ballet moves it knew from afar...Your graceful words are dancing like ballerina girl.. Surely a sweet dedication..

Oh, so glad you saw it too!! I just adore ballet and dance. It takes much training and discipline plus talent! My cousin is wonderful. A great spirit as a dancer, skier, ski instructor, ice skater and human being. Thanks, Jenish again Panagiota xx 12:30am PST
