For one instant
You wait for one first string

Poised for swift flight
The chords commence
Sending you on the journey

Gliding across a bright mirror
Graceful leaps meld
into complec and deep edges

Flowing spirals with
breathtaking extension
Reaching to the sky

Almost seeking a place
among the clouds
Beyond the blue

Spinning and dancing
You come back to earth

Now pausing at center ice

Delicate hands folded
for a fleeting instant

As the dream closes
Two arms outstretch
enveloping the vision

We are left with
your beautiful smile
