Gymnast
December 9, 2007
The gymnast is graceful determination
Poise and toe point
So slight, so fragile
So strong, so disciplined
Her body is the epitome of strength, the epitome of sacrifice
One dream in her eyes
Flip, flop, twist, turn, float
Making the impossible simple
Years for one moment
Perseverance
A burning fire in her heart
A desire for flawlessness
She flys into the atmosphere
Lands intact in a single place
Calculated control
She leaps
Breathtaking beauty
The flying ballerina brings joy in her struggle
Perfection in motion
