I'm pleased for you that this sweet poem was mentioned in the site contest results. Young Kimberly is growing up fast to join the dance of life, with ballet lessons. Clever idea to use her clothing as wordplay motifs.

Clever you. Making use of a ballet term and an infant outfit to describe a growing child. Great alliteration with Kimberly and quickly. The dance, of course, is what life is.

Children are a blessing from God. This was a wonderful poem to capture growing up or youths' milestone. You met the syllable count. Very niched like a short ode. Great work.

Comment from Mary Vigasin
I like the play on words of ones and twos - very clever.
How quickly the little ones grow from baby to young girl, but what comes through mostly in these few words is love and pride for sweet Kimberly.
Best wishes,
Mary

-Nice artwork and presentation, Bill.
-I am enjoying the various topics you are writing about.
-The syllable count is good, along with the description of Kimberly.
-I like the idea of joining the dance, especially since she has just joined the real world, too.
-It can also refer to getting older since she has progressed to tutus.
-Well done and good luck in the contest.

Comment from Cass Carlton
Is that Kimberley in the artwork? It might well be, 'cos she's growing up really fast. I love the quip about onesies and tutus in your piece ,Bill. It sums up the transition from babyhood to little girlhood so delicately. I expect your Kimberley is quite the little girl now, with dolls and teddy bears, and tea sets and picture books and best dresses on Sunday. I only had boys, so my experience with girls was with my sister's daughters. Oh I had fun alright, but
girls are special aren't they? cheers Cass

Thank you, Cass. Yes, she is the youngest of our five grandkids and is as precocious and adorable as can be.

That a cute way to show how quickly our little ones "join in the dance" of life from "onesies to tutus."
I think this will do well in the contest but you should address it to Kimberly in the second line.

Clever play on words here, Bill. Focused on the usual interpretation I didn't get it right away. Or I may be in a NaPoWriMo daze!!! LOL
Children grow up like weeds. I was there to greet both my granddaughters when they were born. And now they're into basketball soccer and SOLs. Cherish every precious move of your dancing queen.
Oh and good luck in the contest, my friend
Stay safe and blessed

This is an excellent 5-7-7 poem. I can see Kimberly growing up way too quickly, but she must feel very proud of her progress I imagine. Thank you for sharing, and good luck in the contest.
