Author Notes
To read: Left arm downwards, then " red AND " then Right arm downward, read Tutu and read legs the same as the arms L to R
I wanted this poem to give you a sense of twirling. As I was creating the visual image with the letters I noticed how closely it resembled a ballerina, so I started to refine the placement a little. I tried to make the words a little more flexible in apperarance.
It could be I'm hallucinating, but the poem took shape in a way I never magined. It became the very thing I was writing about. We already know how magical poetry can be. If you too, can see a ballerina, than perhaps poetry has waved its magical wand again.
I hope you enjoy. Thanks for stoppig by
Helvi :o)
Note:
I don't think the editor likes ballerinas. It really gave me a hard time....... It is also why the ballerinas arms are red, When I change to white the letters really go astray.
I've added a bit more than when I started ....so now my ballerina has gold curls, blue eyes and rosy lips.
