our dancers

it seems almost unfair, and yet not at all. we teach them, we prepare them, we ask them to listen and obey when others ask of them, we help them put one foot in front of the other, and then they run without help. they grow without it being noticed and then you see it, and my heart sinks and tears pool in my eyes. did i miss something. pretty sure i just sung you to sleep last night, and i did, you were in my arms but in the morning your growth is evident and your beauty is radiant. you are so lovely, because you are loved.
