Expectations <br />To glide, on one leg <br />to stay steady, not slip <br />on ice. <br />to stand on your toe, and spin, spin, spin <br />and not get dizzy. <br />to be graceful, beautiful <br />a swan <br />nimble and sharp <br />a needle. <br />you must fly into the air <br />twisting perfectly, <br />skirt twirling, <br />land without a flaw, <br />or be struck down. <br />never stop, never stop. <br />all eyes, observing, judging <br />must come out on top <br />must be perfect, <br />must be graceful, <br />must create intricate figures in the ice, <br />must be an ice skater, <br />a figure skater. <br />but. <br />sorrry to dissapoint <br />im a hockey player.<br /><br />Whisper Loudly<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/figure-skating/
