Constance La France Poet Rhyme

A Funny Thing Happened On the Way To Here

I started my life as a normal girl,
but when walking I liked to leap and twirl;
    my mother enrolled me,
       in dance-  oh joy and glee.
As time passed on clearly I was no good,
when I was suppose to dance I just stood;
then, as I grew I found me and I could.
        Now I dance free and wild,
          a dancing spirit child;
I am one with the sky people who smiled,
down on this girl-  now a warrior strong.
             Leaping like I belong,
               I am part of each song;
some think, I look dumb as I prance and whirl,
funny thing though-   I don't care as I swirl.
