Julianne Williams Poet Rhyme

the girl on the monkey bars

Never will she stop

beetroot chops

My daughter's Tenth time 

swinging across

Children behind waiting, 

their arms crossed in a strop

I call out and say, 

Being fair you are not

Then reaching quickly 

she climbed to the top

Pointing her finger toward

the near ice cream shop

I nod in agreement 

Both are smiling a lot 

My daughter runs over 

excited and hot

Andrea Dietrich October 4, 2024 at 4:50 PM This is so sweet. I chose the same theme but made it naughty instead (not posted yet). I think the judge will love your poem Julianne Williams October 4, 2024 at 5:52 PM thank you :) seeing the title "The Girl on the Monkey Bars" instantly took me back to when I stupidly chose the hottest day that summer for us to visit the park. ( heaving with children with the same red faces as my daughter) I'm so glad you enjoyed reading xx
