Her Ayah liked to dance
inside pretty snow globe worlds.
She wavered in the air and danced on pointed toes.
The girl loved her Ayah.
Ayah, with hair long, thick, and black.
Ayah, who danced for silver coins.
To be like Ayah, the girl began to dance.
She danced until her feet left the ground
and the girl flew far away;
she was an iridescent piece of glass
who danced as Ayah danced.
