she came to an empty dance studio
put on her shoes
and practiced her steps to the music
over and over again
until she got the routine down
and now it was the day of the show
and she knew she was ready to go
with no fear

with loud cheers
the music started
and she danced
every step was perfect
and grand
she took a bow
and heard the loud applause of hands

Poemosaurus Rex Challenge Winners
Hard to conceive, now, how extraordinary it would have been to find the bones of those terrible lizards in the earth — in a time before humans had conceived of anything other than a Great Chain of Being, a static creation. Yet long after Darwin they still have a hold over us, these creatures which are the ancestors of sparrows and seagulls. All hail the dinosaur! They are at once real and mythic, objects of science and objects of wonder, exhibitions in museums and children’s toys. No wonder Vocal Creators responded with such a variety of work to our Poemosaurus prompt.
