The almost unbelievable tale of Dancing Ruby

Sly smiling and sweetly,
Ruby curtsies and briefly...
Before rising to dizzying pirrouette

She spins round and round
All over the pretty town,
Until red faced and out of breathe

Expecting rounds of mad clapping...
Her pink tippy toe a-tapping..
Rubies lil heart falls when she turns and sees,

Her blue eyes grow so wide!
Oh! to her shock and surprise...
Her twirling, it has leveled Eureka Springs!

Author's Note
This was inspired by my sweet niece Ruby. She loves to dance, and loves my home town, Eureka Springs Arkansas. She wrote and drew the drawing above this morning while we snuggled under her favorite blanket. Thank you Ruby!
