the dancer
a proud elongated neck
sleeked hair held back by a majestic bow
challenging eyes
defiant lips
and a triumphant smile
bursts of color all around
suntanned elegant arms reaching for the sky
a swirling dress that knows no bounds
taut calf's
arched back
pointed feet moving in a rapid rhythm
twirling to the beat of hand flicking castanets
a fan wanting the musky air away
short heavy breaths
sparkles flying
bells ringing
bursts of color all around
