In The Music Box
January 23, 2009
a dancing figurine
so beautifully sad
in its stillness
only coming to life
at the will of a hand
and in the eyes
of a little girl
spinning along
to the music
until it stops
sadly, forcefully
once again
into stillness

I like how you used personification in this one. Very good and descriptively explained. It's also really cool how you incorporated the music box into such a great poem because you loved to dance and it gives it more emotion. :] good job.
