Ballerina Beauty....

I have been very inspired by the beauty of ballerinas recently.

I don't know what it is that is so captivating about them.

Perhaps the pain and suffering they endure is what shines through to create their remarkable beauty.

She had blue skin.

And so did he.

He kept it hid

And so did she.

They searched for blue

Their whole life through,

Then passed right by –

And never knew.
