She wakes in the morning, opens her eyes to the world <br />Just another dreamer, just another little girl. <br />School waits for her but she doesn’t really care for it <br />They give her homework but she just can’t finish it <br />But when the night comes and she hits the floor <br />No one’s going to tell her what to do anymore <br /> <br />She comes home in the evening, ready for the night <br />Looking out of her window at the burning street light <br />She’s got one last chance to make the grade <br />To hit the stage with plans she’s so carefully laid <br />And when the night time comes and she hits the floor <br />She isn’t going to worry about work anymore <br /> <br />Let the music play all night as around the room you twirl <br />Hold that dream in your heart forever, little dancer girl.<br /><br />Anthony Lund<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/little-dancer-girl/
