I was only five when I started taking many different types of dance classes
Loving them all I spent many years learning and practicing.
Every lesson,having a goal to meet, a little block inside new shoes.
After many years of learning the basics and the french names of each new step
My mother gave me a box wrapped with a pink ribbon
"An involuntary gasp of shock escaped my lips when I opened the shoebox and saw the pointy-toed shoes..."
I think, this was the happiest moment in my life

ReplyDeleteNicely done! A very heartwarming tale!
ReplyDeleteI love the different way you took this.
ReplyDeleteI wrote this prompt with a vision of elf shoes in my head...and so many have been macabre. And this one, while non elf, is beautiful and uplifting.
What a fun week of reading.
This text seems to stand alone! I haven't finished reading everyone's SC yet, but so far no one has thought of ballet-shoes. Or the joy of being a little girl who can take ballet-lessons! I have two nieces that have been taking ballet-lessons for ten years or so and they can dance in toes shoes. I am so proud of them.
ReplyDeleteYou have written a heartwarming, happy text about the love of an art form - dance. And you were not tempted to make it macbre or wierd. You let it be a purely happy and innocent text.
I love this!
Best wishes,
