Lavender confusion touches lilac painted dreams,
A clockwork ballerina, improvised quatriemes.
Virtuoso on a music box, face of swathed delight,
Elegant persuasion, will dance in dreams this night.
Natural enchantment of a painted pirouette,
Dreamlands mystic dancer, lustered silhouette.
Eternally she dances in a ballet of illusion,
Remembered only briefly, in lavender confusion.

Excellent take on the picture! A feeling of being lost in dreams and illusion!
(is "lustred" supposed to be "lusted" or "luster"?)
