MIRACLE OF THE MYSTICAL FLOWERS

She’d always dreamed of being a dancer,
world famous entertainment enhancer.
She practiced to trip the bright lights fantastic;
her exercise regimen bordered on drastic.

Nothing outstanding came as a result,
naught but the occasional subtle insult.
It had seemed like so many wasted hours.
Then she encountered the magical flowers.

Something about those two bright yellow blooms
bore mystical powers in dark nature’s rooms.
Suddenly limbs were all in correct time
better than cadence of some perfect rhyme.

Her grace and elan bade all patrons to hark.
Tchaikowsky’s Swan Lake became her renowned trademark.
Applause echoed back to tall opera house towers,
thanks to the miracle of the mystical flowers.
