Ballerina

O lovely ballerina with the eyes

That penetrate the very depths of soul,

Your smile is blessing on the multitudes

That pass unknowing wrapped in unfilled dreams.

I who have seen your beauty radiate

An aura of beneficence to all,

Who looked on me and opened arms of joy

To be enfolded in my heart of peace,

Remember when the clouds of doubt descend

Enveloping the faithless with their shade

That in you dwells supreme delight, content

To live and love embracing all the world.
