My Little Ballerina

Would you like to dance my little ballerina? She dances and dances, no leotard, no tutu, no hair ribbon, and no ballet slippers. she spins with hands over her head, and I dream of. Our nearby beautiful lake near the mountains, She dances with joy on the shores, with wind unfurling her hair, No swans, no prince, no villains, no curses, just pure sweet innocence, the ducks and geese become spellbound to show their synchronized dances. She dances and dances to open a beautiful world for us all, Ballerina Angelina pops up in her pink wardrobe and shoes, Angelina dances with my little ballerina scattering their smile all around, She swirls, she twirls, she spins, my dream spins with her. Are you tired, my little ballerina? She opens her eyes, keeps dancing with hands over her head, This is a magical moment for me, when I pick her up and give her a hug? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - My little ballerina. my two-year-old granddaughter. Ballerina Angelina. fictional mouse Ballerina (TV character) Swans are rare in this part of the world.

This poem, Jay, is a delightful piece of work. It exudes a charming quality and flows with the sweetness of children's innocent dance.

Jay, this is utterly charming, flowing with the sweetness of the innocent dance of children! What a gift of joy they give us as they dance through our hearts. I hope you can see my heart smiling as I remember the dance of my granddaughter when she was four. Blessings on the dance.

My little ballerina just turned three, and it's in those first moments when they wake that we can hold them close for a dance with them in our arms. I feel your love, Jay.
