Ballerina

Neville

Ballerina

Like a tiny ballerina

She skips across the floor

She pirouettes then reaches out

To rearrange a flower

Naked

Save the broken golden cross

She always wore

Then watching from the unmade bed

I realise her lover said

I love you

          Reminds me of 'Dance of the sugar plum fairy' by someone or another. I'm not 'into' classical stuff as an expert, as you see! lol. Some Chai-coughski bloke it is.
