Angels

by Niveus Nox   Dec 18, 2009


(I dedicate this to the ballet girls/guy and Stan & Sharon. You were my inspiration for this poem.)

The lights go dim
and the stage goes black.
The audience listens
for the first foot step.

Like a beacon at night
the first dancer sings,
with arms of emotion
flowing elegantly.

They paint the stage
with body and soul,
while gliding on air
like the first winter snow.

Passion from heaven
ripples through hearts,
by the grace of a dancer,
the purest of art.

Beautiful jewels,
who melt all with a glance.
God gave us these,
our angels to dance.

    Excellent poem my friend. You definitely have the talent.

    one suggestion is all

    instead of saying

    Who melt all with a glance

    try

    Melting all with a glance.

    Taking that one syllable out for me at least helps the flow in that "very important" last stanza.

    If you'd like... for every poem of mine you read, review and rate, I will come back and do another of yours.

    keep up the great writing.
