Michael's Glove { Competiton Poem}

I was sequined and splendidly bright,
My owner would say the sequins were like pixie dust.
He was Peter Pan as he moved with a little help from me.
One night we made history on May 16, 1983 performing on Motown 25th's special.
As Michael did a turn then shocked the world once he moonwalked then spun again as he then stood on his tippy toes.
The crowd cheered with glee as we were the talk of the night's special over everything else,
People admired my owner as the ladies swooned over him while the boys wanted to be just like him as they would try to buy replica gloves that looked just like me.
Needless to say we were the hit of the generation throughout the decades we became symbols.
Then me and my owner came back on September 7, 2001 for his 30th anniversary of thirty years as an artist as he put me on along with his black fedora and reminded everyone how iconic he still was even then.
That was the last time I was taken out to perform with Michael as he was planning to take me out one more time in 2009 his soul had went away as he flew away with the angels as I was left behind along with the rest of his other beloved memorabilia.
