Listen to poem:
The Dancer
The Dancer
David J Walker
I will never be the
Dancer I dreamed of
Gliding across the floor
Moved by the music
And bowing to the audience
Wanting more
Applauding
Her lament as heard by the four
Who formed a ring
Encircling
their mother
Applauding every
Graceful movement
On the hardwood floor
Guiding them through life
Want more
And more
