This is deserving of a sixth star which I no longer have; however, I'm not sure if this piece made me feel such strong emotions because of the incredible music of Van Morrison and the incredible graphics. However, after reading it after all the glitz and sensuous refrains ended, your poem is rift with sensuous metaphors and analogies and the poem flows so beautifully without punctuation-each word is needed for the climax ending of the poem! Well done!

Very eloquently written. Flowed well and was easy to read and follow the 'theme'. Photos were also breath taking. This is the first time I have had the pleasure of reviewing your work.

Your poem is beautiful and the accompanying video is great as well. The poem is delicate and disciplined as a ballerina likely is. The juxtaposition of Van Morrison's raspy voice with the delicate dancer is interesting and it works.
I would recommend your poem to anyone. The beautiful is divine. That is what we need more of in this world now.

A very well-written poem. The dance of a ballerina is always beautiful to watch and enjoyable. The gracious movements are mind blowing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is the most beautiful poem I have had the pleasure to read this morning. Your well-penned verses produce such lovely imagery throughout the poem. Really LOVE the fourth and fifth verses very much. The video is an awesome accompaniment to the poem. Very impressive writing at its finest! God bless and hugs, Susanne

A beautiful portrayal of a ballerina. I liked the way your poem was interspersed with ballet steps.
There was alliteration throughout, carefully woven into the structure.
This flows well with careful, interesting vocabulary choices.
Best wishes
Fiona

"Step right up and ring the bell". OMG. Astral Weeks (1968). A gorgeous write that resonates in my heart like a caress. Richly rewarding allit throughout the write. You always seem to find the most amazing music to accompany the pen. DJ xx

A beautifully composed poem with all of the ballet references. Never having taken ballet, I am at a loss for what most of them mean, but your meaning comes through anyway. One suggestion:

abandon sips sparingly nectars treasure (nectar's)

Good writing, my friend~Debbie

Beautifully expressed, this is the celebration of woman, that each of us wants to have or be part of.
