Wendy,
I really love this stellar poem.
The rhyme is has a wonderful meter, and the words are great.
Every little girl can identify with your poem.
Exceptional entry, Wendy.
Good luck with this one!
Blessings,
Cindy

Thank you Cindy, for your words and for the six beautiful stars, which I count as a great honour. Such a lovely review, and so encouraging.

That's a good one, Wendy. We'll be fighting it out in the contest. I don't think dads pay as much attention to their kids today as they did when we were growing up.

Well, you'll beat me on metre!! I haven't seen a lot of other entries but I have noted that there are a lot who can write excellent and imaginative children's poems.
My father was not at all like this - but my son is, with his three little girls. He's very involved with all their daily care and routines, and also fun. I think I modelled it on him.

Comment from Sarah Tummey
This is a lovely children's poem. It made me think of when my friend's daughter (now 12) was small enough to be carried on her dad's shoulders. Dads can definitely be fun.

Yes, they are very lucky to have dads like this. My own father wasn't at all like this, but my son is, with his three little girls. Thanks so much for a fine review.

I was an unabashed Daddy's girl. Everybody knew it, and I was at my most joyous playing with him in our special rough and tumble but oh so sweet way! What I wouldn't give to have him back again ~ so I could tell him just how special all of those memories are!

Thank you very much for your lovely review. Your close relationship with him would have been his precious reward and I am sure he knew you remembered those special times.

What delightful poem, Wendy! The author's words are uplifting, fun,
descriptive, loving and creative. I pondered on these words and thought
about how much fun they were having just being together! The poem
flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome and compliments this poem.

Great contest entry!!!! The picture enhances the words and the reader can feel the fun and hear the laughter. My favorite line:
My head is spinning with laughter and fun ...
My Daddy's always my Number One!
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from K. Lang-Slattery
I really like this lovely poem. The images it creates of "horse-play" with Daddy are classic. I like the idea of the final stanza, but somehow the words don't flow as easily as in the earlier stanzas. You always write beautiful poems about your grandchildren. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much Kate. Yes the last stanza has a slightly different rhythm, couldn?t quite achieve what I wanted to say. I?ll have another look. Thank you.

Comment from Verna Cole Mitchell
This is a sweet poetic tribute to a little girl who loves her daddy, and obviously, it's returned. I was a daddy's girl, so I understand the special link between father and daughter. The poem and picture are both lovely!
