The Figure Skater

Grace and beauty on the ice,

They jump and twirl and spin,

Racing down, around and round,

Around and back again.

Poetry on figure skates

Defying gravity;

Elevating, levitating

Angle by degree.

Music playing in the background

Softly, soothing, warm;

Lifting up the spirit

With an easy distant charm.

Every move precision.

Every motion primed.

Like a poet's sense of meter,

Every sentence rhymed.

Coming to a grand crescendo,

Spinning like a top!

Leaving watchers wanting

Curtain calls that never stop.
