So they say that it's
contagious.
Let's try and spread
it so we're sure.
If someone's got it,
let them in.
Open your door.
Is it a problem that
there's not yet a cure?
We've already
caught it and we only
need more.

A YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL ....
BALLERINA
KNOWN BY THE NAME
OF CONSTANTINA
LOVELY.... HOME GROWN ....
ITALIAN GIRL
WHO DREAMED OF DANCING
AROUND THE WORLD
YOU'LL FALL IN LOVE....
WITH JUST ONE GLANCE
AS SHE TELLS A STORY
WITH EVERY DANCE
ONE HUNDRED POUNDS
AND 5 FOOT 4
WATCH... HOW SHE GLIDES...
ACROSS THE FLOOR
MESMERIZING....
HOW SHE MOVES WITH GRACE
THE LOOK OF AN ANGEL
UPON HER FACE
TRULY MAGNIFICENT
I SHALL SAY
I LONG TO WATCH HER
EVERYDAY
IF YOU WATCH HER PERFORM
SHE WILL STEAL YOUR HEART
HEAVENLY GIFTED....
