Hello. Absolutely great read. Good rhyme scheme. Ballerinas motioning like the adjectives describing falling snow turn out to bow. Very neat. Cheers.

Excellent. You remained within the form of (n-1), while at the same time matching the pace of the poem to the imagery. The images during the dance flow with the gerunds (leaping, whirling, twirling, sparkling, shining) and then it stops. "Shines" gives a good sense of stillness after the motion. I really like "Cold moon."
