It was Serena’s incredible pirouettes and arabesques that ranked her as prima ballerina in the Paris Arts Ballet Company. Her unique body possessed a mysterious beauty that mesmerized all watching her. She was most unusual.
Now dancing the dying swan in Tchaikovsky’s famous ballet at the Buenos Aires Theatre, Serena transformed herself into a graceful swan about to glide into death’s dark abyss.
After the concert, she entered her dressing room and quietly locked the door. Hours passed.
When they found her, she was lying naked on the floor. Even in death, Serena beguiled all with her own swan song secret.
You pack a lot of story into few words. Bravo.
Brevity with impact is my way although I am a chatterbox. Thank you David!
Breathtaking! Lovely as a swan is your writing Nancy! Keep writing!
It seems like summarizing famous movies in 101 words is all it needs.

Reminds me of the psychological horror, Black Swan
Well done. I love your stories, especially when we were young.
