The Ballerina

never a quitter ,
the boundlessness ballerina
is spunky and trusting
with mercurial will .

as an admirer of ballet, the devotion and dedication it takes I like the addition of mercurial will, denoting having achieved a development of attitude along with it....interesting form of free verse

I've known dancers most of my life, and the discipline and the determination is mind numbing to me. Thanks for the review.
