Creative Challenge 124 # The Swinger

The Swinger

 

Spotlights positioned perfectly

 The crowds stand to applaud

 As her die hard fans wipe

Tears of sadness away

Tears that trickle down in abundance

 From red and watery eyes

She Alas!

 Now

Remains frozen in time

Never to repeat again

Those daring acts

Of Glory

Sitting Spellbound her audience enjoyed 

Thrill after thrill

As she performed to the utmost of precision

Those death defying

High Flying 

Swinging

Acts of daring

Which only a dedicated athlete can achieve

to such perfection

Alas!

Now Stilled

She remains

Frozen in time

Forever more

So

Let me introduce to You

This beauty of the high wire

The One and Only

 Boho Girl

Trapeze Artiste Extraordinaire!

  12. Milli, that is one helluva photo! It would make a great pic on a wall, framed. It is just sooo cool. And so original. You are an artist with pics and words. Too bad that Boho Girl's career is over ;).
