Description A native to the city lights
Knows just what she’s looking for
Moving through the cities nights
Leaves me always wanting more

Put her interest deep into the arts
Gave her all from an early age
Her dance is always from the heart
Being born for the center stage

Without dance she feels lost
Knowing how it’s worth fighting for
Reaching the goals is worth the cost
It’s the light in her eyes I adore.

* She can not be denied
As she soars through the solar winds
She can not be confined
As she dances through the solar winds..

As her fingers caress the keys
They produce passionate poetic beauty
Her Liszt's extremes they run so free
Moving gently to the key of "C"

* She dances for the lens
She dances for the voucher
With every move she wins
As the art must compel her

She can not be denied
As she soars through the solar winds
She can not be confined
As she dances for the cosmic lens.

I've poked around on your page before, but I don't know if I ever commented... This one, however, calls for it. I usually find it awkward to read lyrics (especially rhyming) because it tends to take on a simplistic chanting in my head if I don't know the tune. Either this one didn't do that or I was too busy enjoying it to notice.

I especially love the music and photography references—expression within expression. Very nice.

Although... one tiny nitpick that cries out to the grammar nerd inside of me to be fixed (hopefully you don't mind): in line three it should either be city's or cities', depending on whether you want it to be singular or plural. Otherwise, fabulous!

Thank you for you comments. And glad for the comment on the grammer. for a person that writes, my grammer can take on a life of it's own
I need to be more of a grammer nerd.

No problem! I know freaky things about grammar, yet I still find simple errors popping up in the things that I write. I'm just grateful that you didn't get angry at me for correcting you!

beautiful rhyming scheme. The second last stanza really calls out to me... the reference to lens and art and dancing..
excellent poem.. i thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it.
