The Swan
Stretch downnnn!
Swing uppp!
And again-you’re meant to be a swan
Turn, pivot, again!
I don’t feel like a swan
I never get it right
for all I try
I never get it right
No! No! Do it again,
Come on Jessica
Stretch your toes, arch!
Arch!
I wish I was a real swan
floating on the river
not a care
the world just drifting on
Again!
Twirl! Twirl
Stretch uppp!
You’re supposed to be
Graceful!!
the whiteness of her feathers
the graceful elegance
so different, so unique
her beautiful neck cradled
Stretch again! Again
Pivot! Twirl!
Silhouette!
Jessica.. more!
I want more!
even though she doesn’t fly
I could! I could believe
even just for a moment
become like her, and
fly to another place.
Finally!
