And So It Begins

And so it begins... A dazzling display of showmanship A very stiff dance competition Observed by a live audience By four judges sitting in the front row Meticulous; they don't miss a thing The dancing prowess of every performer The twirls, the shuffles, the oohs and aahs The missteps, the works Hoofers take to the dance floor One after the other in pursuit of glory Each one aiming to please To steal the show, to come out on top All dance routines ending In thunderous applause They all make it hard for the judges To pick a sole winner It's a mesmerizing experience...
