Waiting in the quiet Hoping there will be a riot Of applause When it is time to take my bow. Waiting in the darkness Thinking, “Will I make a big mess Will I stumble And fall flat upon my face?” Waiting in the dust motes I hear the very first notes My cue I take a breath and then I go. Waiting here with head bent This will be my moment To dance Fulfilling all my hopes and dreams. Waiting for the first step And thinking all the while Remember, Jordan Don’t forget to smile.
