Lift me down again <br />that always feels new; <br />Twirl me down again <br />to cure my dizziness. <br /> <br />Turn my pedestal upside down <br />finding me with Humilities Smile <br />on my upside face. <br /> <br />Can a man walk on one leg? <br />Can you hear the sound of one hand clapping? <br /> <br />Can you hear a butterfly sing? <br /> <br />You can. <br /> <br />Can anything compare to <br />the lift me down, <br />the dizzy cure <br />the upside down pedestal <br />and the one legged man walking <br />one hand clapping <br />the butterfly smile? <br />Yes, that would be you; <br /> <br />You're my dance partner <br />lifting me down <br />twirling me <br />upside down <br />on the pedestal <br />on one leg <br />ballerina style. <br /> <br />And now <br />you know <br />how dancing feels <br />when loved <br />and being loved: <br />twirled upside down.<br /><br />Lonnie Hicks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ballerina-style/
