Watching the Dance

The dancers ranged from tiny tots
In tutus meant for twirls
To those performing hip hop moves
Designed for older girls.

There also were performances
In modern dance and jazz,
With everybody showing off
Their talent and pizzazz.

We watched the whole two hour show
And clapped for each routine,
But saved our cheering for the times
Our granddaughter was seen.

She nailed her hip hop attitude,
Her ponytail a’sway
And sparkled in the jazz part,
Smiles and sequins on display.

How special to experience
A showing that reveals
All the pride in an accomplishment
And joy a grandchild feels.
