Ice Dancers

Frozen stadium comes alive as dancers two by two arrive. Change room bustles and voices cry from past peer bonds, friendships revive. Stretch limber legs, how hard they try warm ups, touch ups, but passers by can sense the tension, feel the heat as ice dancers get set to fly. A buzzing roar, the rhythmic beat pound of patrons impatient feet loudspeakers pitch, music proclaims and so the first in pairs compete. Graceful motion, perfection aims of ice and fire, of silk and flames for love of country all will strive to bring gold to Olympic games.
