Hurricane Ballerina

A dance poem.

Hurricane Ballerina

As lightening shone and thunder blue

I danced the dance that dancers do.

 

With the spin of my pink tutu,

And the twist of my long legs

I danced with great courage

As any ballerina caught in

A hurricane would do.

 

I soared with my heart,

leaped with my legs

waved my arms

With the grace

Of an eagle in flight,

 

As the waves of the

Hurricane shook

And through me

Into the air

Without a care.
