Dedicated to my first pair of pointe shoes.

The flutter of her fingers
Causes phosphorescent glow.
A delicate little wrist
Expressing more than I'll ever know.

A spray of tulle, a rosebud mouth,
The arch of satin foot en pointe.
She turns, a blur, a squeaky board,
Bewitching from my vantage point.

Her dance is rhythmic, 'round the floor,
I'm in a trance, my eyes are glued.
Sugar Plum Fairies, swans and sylphs,
The supernatural worlds intrude.

And yet the shadows steal into
The fairy tales, her dreamlike smile.
Nefarious kings, a wounded heart,
The mantle of grief she does beguile.

I feel a lump within my throat,
A heat that's rising, springing tears.
She is so lovely, feminine,
She vanishes almost all of my fears.

I am transported, stolen away,
The old piano soothingly sings.
My body rocks, my hips they sway,
I'm soaring on magnificent wings.
