She curtsies to the light, from yonder sky
Deep in the woods, as the night floats by
Beckoning to her, she stands there, alone
A lyrical figure, bathed in moonstone
She’ll pirouette ’round flowers, on gentlest toes
This ballerina dances, wherever moonlight glows

Graceful flower bows
Like the swan of the ballet
Awaiting her encore

Let me breathe freely
With the flowers in the field
Inhaling all the splendor
My soul can now be healed
Graced in God’s wonder
Beautiful colors blend
Touched by a gently blowing breeze
My thoughts can now transcend
And carry me to places
Where I never thought I’d go
Beyond the beauty of nature’s ballet
Dancing to and fro

*******************************
For those who do not know ballet terms they are as follows;
Chasse – a slide forward, backward, or sideways
Ballon – Showing lightness of movement in leaps and jumps. A dancer exhibiting ballon will appear to spring effortlessly, float in mid-air, and land softly.
Pas de Bourree Couru – flowing smoothly
