You smile across the table

Your eyes locked with her dancing frame

Watching, observant, as she gets lost in the music

She glides across the room

Each pirouette perfect

Each Glissade on point

She moves with grace

A portrait of elegance

She twirls in her pink tutu

Eyes closed as the music builds

I see you fall deeper

As you observe her every move

Adoration sparkling in your eyes

The last chord strikes

Her bright eyes cracking open

Meeting your piercing gaze

She curtsies and smiles

All eyes are on her

As she bows out

Leaving you to dream of her

Under the city’s stars
