Grande Finale

by p.lauré

If this were a show, everyone would be waiting for the entertainers to arrive.

If this were a show, the ballerinas on stage would be preparing.

If this were a show, soon the curtains open and the dancers leap.

If this were a show, it would be a sight to keep.

If this were a show, lights would be shining & there would be movement on stage.

If this were a show, the energy inside the star’s body would make their heart race.

If this were a show, it would make the audiance want to dance in their seat.

If this were a show, the male dancers would catch the woman and their hands would meet.

But this is not a show; it is merely a practice in the studio as a young girl’s mind goes crazy.

    Nice use of repetition; I like how it could be taken both literally and as a metaphor. Nice job.
