The Perfect Dancer

You have perfect skill.
Bringing everyone in the crowd to chill.
You make dancing seem so easy.

The way you move can catch everybody's eyes.
People know you will take home the prize.
Flawlessly impressing anybody.

No one thought this would befall.
We didn't want to make that call.
The hospital says you won't ever perform again.

Oh how tragic, I wasn't expecting such a sad ending. This is easy to see as a ballad, the loss in your words, quite startling. Nice job..well done :-) blessings, lynn
