Little Mermaid

Rebecca wrinkles her itty bitty nose and giggles Loads of soapy bubbles almost over her head Warm soothing water still running noisily Holding on to her precious Little Mermaid doll Rebecca reaches over to quiet the flow Ah the echo of silence! How magically delightful ! Now her singing lesson can begin As she plays with her mermaid friend Reenacting a world of aquatic fantasy Belting out every Little Mermaid song One day Rebecca will be a superstar But today she’s just another mermaid having fun AP: 2nd place 2020 Submitted on March 30, 2019 for contest SPECIFICITY IN POETRY sponsored by SHERI FRESONKE HARPER - RANKED 5TH

Oh, Little Mermaid is one of my very favorite movies. I had the sound track when my daughter was small. Now her daughter is my little mermaid. Enjoyed this so much and especially "now her singing lesson can begin" ;) Congratulations!

Rebecca sounds delightful; I can almost hear her singing those Little Mermaid songs, but unfortunately Frozen's "Let it Go!" Keeps jumping into my mind frame.

As long as Rebecca is happy, she can sing whatever she likes.
