Ariel

Ariel "With the eyes of a child I stare in awe, a wondrous sight I take in all Angels flying without wings, hurling through the air, spinning and twirling without a care People moan and gasp as they pass, praying the next move will not be their last For daredevils they are one and all, but there is no net in which to catch their fall Suddenly, the signal is given - Quiet now Quiet, all eyes aloft, for the final act is here so we draw near With synchronous harmony they let themselves fly, swinging and looping high into the sky Spinning like tops they make a final pass, reaching hands grasp hands in this Ariel dance Bows are taken and the crowd erupts in raucous roars, we toast to the high flyers - May They Soar Forever More" -Jon Jones
