Dancer

Daintily she prances.
Dancing on tippy toes.
Demonstrating divine
Delectable movement.
Designed to captivate.
Devotees of best ballet.
Dazzled by her brillance.

For some reason when I read this, I thought of little girl ballerinas. Wonderful description of a ballet dancer, Jean! Congrats on your 3rd place win! Blessings!

Thank you Kim. I think it's the tippy toes that reminds us of childhood.

Pity. I could have been your Sandy in Grease Arthur. "Wait a minute......Stud!!"

This is really nice Jean. I suppose maybe a daughter has taken dance at one time or another. You certainly captured the feeling.

I just love the thrill of seeing the challenge 34 out of 35 Viv. A race against time. Missed it last time by the skin of my teeth.

Oh... I love this one the only way I can dance is by myself so I won't step on no ones feet.... Good luck in the contest :) Hugs Eve
