Gold Fades


    Flashy precious element garners praise
    Sunshine nimble dancer cadence phase
    Youthful choral voice lures voyeurs envious
    Camber of limber hips aren't impervious 
    Dank of crippled knees creep in mid way
    Million dollar grin slumps puckered fray
    Bullion of beauty slides gradual withdrawal 
    Dirt returning mineral sings encore mortal
