Wednesday

It's not fair!

 I can see it
just up there
I can’t reach it,
that’s not fair!

If I grab this leg
and shake
it may fall down!
but it might break

Even stood
on tippy-toes
how I’ll get it
heaven knows

Suppose I climb
up on this chair?
I don’t like heights
don’t think I dare

If I clamber
on the shelf
I might fall
and hurt myself

It’s not fair
I’ll let it be
it’s not easy
being three

Thanks for looking up "Competition" and I am glad you enjoyed it ! :)

Would it be backscratching if I said I enjoyed your poem more?!

Ok ..let's say your poem is more 'mature' ..after all a three year old would be than a little crawling baby !! :)

P.S.

Have put up one more for the WI prompt of "Flight "

Hope you will look it up :)
Thanks
