Congratulations on CW's obit; pitchperfect !
When our
daughter,Anina, was 11,-- in her ballet bar practicing dancing-slippers
phase --we made a puppett show based on the Icarus
legend -----epitomizing the poetry and magic of the dance, its
devotion to discipline, its sublime, (but sometimes dangerous,) reach, and it's
go-for-broke courage .....The last verse of the song which accompanied
& invoked these things, crystallized the essence of the dance itself, and it
seems to me, as good a testimony to Cynthia as any I can think
of...
"
Praise the labyrnth of sighs
Praise
the fire in the skies
Praise the arrow in its arc
Praise the dancer in the dark
Praise the blessed point of poise
Which makes Gold of dull alloys
And
which finds for every flame its holy spark
(And which finds for every flame its holy
spark ..)"
-Lotte,Alan,Naomi,David,Anina... |
