I'M No Ballerina

My name is Charles Francis Messina 
I can dance - but I'm no - ballerina 
My toes are too small - and I'd tumble and fall 
Then you'd giggle - like a laughing - hyena 


Example: For my contest

Lindsay Laurie Date: 9/3/2018 8:45:00 PM Hello Charles … nicely written. Actually I'm like a fairy elephant when I dance, and that's only if someone spiked my drink - eg: a barman with alcohol - thanks Charles - Lindsay Login to Reply
