On Point
On point, a graceful stance
In ballets mesmerizing dance
With pointed toes, and arms outstretched
They captivate, leaving us bewitched
With poise and elegance so fair
A dancers talent takes us there
In perfect form, they glide and twirl
Their movements line a graceful whirl
Thier dedication, hard work pays
In every step, a story conveys
Thier bodies strong, their passion fierce
They make the audience heart pierce
On point, a symbol of their craft
A moment their dreams are surpassed
For in their grace, we find delight
A testament to their endless fight
