Nutcracker

Nutcracker
( inspired by the ballet)

I'm all a tingle my heart does
leap, like ballarinas in my sleep,
Heavenly notes tinkle fly,,
mices wrinkle scurry by,..

Little girl your dream so real,
sweetest stories do reveal.
Sugar plums and Chinese 
dancers, dolls and jesters
Wizard fancies..

How I can feel the joy
of dance,
from centuries unravelled
I'm entranced .

To skim across the starry night,
with a soldier prince by my side..
glyde and piroet in space..
I'll never forget this magic place .

Sadness is to open eyes..
and find it all a disguise..
smoke and mirrors..
fairy's dust..
in fantasy I  put my trust..

A slight emotive moment
is revealed, 
When the dreaded parting

is not concealed.

But here I have to hold  ever dear.
The Nutcracker - my own bombardier.
