The Audition Every day that passes by I am reminded of a special time When dreams and wishes were passionately held Within the heart of a blonde little girl To this day there is a portrait That has adorned my bedroom walls It has a place within my home Where the gold of sun may cast its glow I reminisce each passing year When attic cleaning is done in spring Of when I received a precious gift My mother could ever give me Sewn by the hand of love it was A leotard in blushing pink With petal skirt in sheer chiffon And brand new tights in shade of beige This little girl was then transformed Into a ballerina it would seem While her audience of cherished teddy bears Sat quietly in her view She made her first pirouette of dance Within the tranquility of her room There are more tales that can be told But this one forever shall remain Of a loving mother and a little girl Believing in a dream... ~coco~ [This message has been edited by CocoBaci (edited 02-07-2001).] |
