The Dance of Dances

The Pirouette of life's memories Flitter before my eyes... Grand Jeté moments of ecstasy - leaping forth triumphantly! The Arabesque of solitude, Contemplation and longing. Balancing En Pointe moments - Where something just has to give... As I crumble into a Grand Plié. Rising into Pas De Deux, a joyous unity... The Porté of two becoming one. Never wanting it to end. Coda Crescendo. Unexpected. Sudden. Unforseen. Now I wait for my Pas Marché. Paying Reverence to life's memories: The Dance of Dances.

I had to look up some of the terms in this poem to realize that you named dance moves in this winning poem in my contest. How fitting that a contest for Dance of...gets dancing terms used inside it. Great job and congratulations!
