Everything Beautiful

Features of stone

were washed away

as the old man watched

the willowy ballerina sashay .

The winds and strings

further tenderized his soul,

till glassy eyes refused to blink

as time faded

and only the moment was.

dear Cherry, a Ballerina lives her days as Violins play and her Lover is entranced as they dream their orchestrated memories. Charmingly romantic. Pat

That we all might have such moments.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Yes stingy moments we need from time to time to navigate this old world.

I can picture this clearly and it really made me smile. There's nothing like a beautiful ballerina to make an old man feel young again. I could see his eyes glistening as he thought back on his own ballerina, the love of his life. Just me though I suppose. Nicely written Cherrie.

[Cherrie Palmer]

Exactly:) and thank you
