DANCE LITTLE ELLIE--DANCE

This is a poem for a special girl--I won't mention who she is,she's not known as Ellie,only to those "in the know".But I do hope she will find this poem special and a extra special gift from me.

DANCE LITTLE ELLIE,DANCE.

DANCE LITTLE ELLIE,DANCE.
SEE? YOU'RE FLOATING,JUST LIKE A CLOUD.
DANCE LITTLE ELLIE DANCE,
MAKE POPPY,OH SO PROUD.
RING A RING A ROSIE,
A TEAPOT,SHORT AND STOUT.
ONE DAY,YOU'LL BE A BIG GIRL,
THATS WHAT LIFE'S ALL ABOUT.

DANCE FOR ME ELLIE,DANCE,
I'LL WATCH YOU GLIDE ACROSS THE FLOOR,
MY PRETTY,SILVER WINGED ANGEL-
"BRAVO--MORE,MORE,MORE"
DANCE FOR ME ELLIE,DANCE
YOU'RE GROWING UP AND HOW,
BEAUTIFUL AND GRACEFUL,
ALMOST A BIG GIRL NOW.

DANCE FOR ME ELLIE,DANCE,
ON POINTED TOE YOU GO.
MY PRIMA BALERINA,
THATS WHAT YOU ARE YOU KNOW?
DANCE FOR ME ELLIE,DANCE
KICK YOUR LEGS TOWARD THE SKY,
YOU KNOW ,THAT I'LL BE WATCHING
AS MY CLOUD GOES PASSING BY.

DANCE FOR ME ELLIE,DANCE.
WHY? STILL I LOOK, YOU SEE?
I'M WATCHING NOW YOU'VE GROWN UP
ALTHOUGH YOU CAN'T SEE ME.
YOU KNOW,I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE
AND I'LL FIND YOU IN LIFES CROWD.
KEEP DANCING FOR ME ELLIE,
YOU'VE MADE YOUR POPPY PROUD.
