You were a very pretty child and no doubt attractive as an adult :-). I enjoyed reading this rhyming poem entry. It paints a sad picture of a young child feeling neglected or missing love and wanting the embrace of their mother.
On a personal observation - the last two lines did not seem to fit well to conclude the poem using the end words of - close and most. The repeat of blue fingers blue hand may not be the answer.
(close / dose - most / boast / ghost)
Thank you for sharing.

OMG what a very sad poem! Where is the mother? I'm assuming that mother is out somewhere, maybe at work trying to support her child but she needed to be at home with her daughter. It's a very well written piece of poetry with a tragic end. Good luck!

Such a sad story for this little girl. Where is her mother? Why is there no one to hear her pleas? It reminds me of "The Little Match Girl". No one cared until it was too late.

WOW Lea, this is most effective in its chilling direction. The poem as a whole is succinct and complete. It draws in the reader instantly and carries them to the dumpster without hesitation. Frightening !

Fantastic use of natural, unforced rhyme. Such a moving story and the last stanza rams the message home. Painful to read. Economy of suggestion makes this even more effective. The 'small covered mound' says enough to cause tears. Excellent.

This is very eerie, very scary to think of a young girl, out in the dark searching for her mother. Your descriptions really put me out there with this small frightened girl, curled up, cold. Great rhyming poem Lea,
good luck in the contest.
Cheers,
valda

It sounds like you were hiding outside in the cold here Lea and it sounds like a terrifying experience for you as a young child, a poignant poem, love Dolly x x x
