daddies have a talent for playing the clown for their little girls. My daddy was so much fun and a real friend when he became my dad. I was so lucky. This is a great story. I saw no spags or nits. Well done, Yvonne. Nancy:)

I really enjoyed your poem. It's a little slice of life.
You did a good job with your form, you held true there. I mostly appreciated the simplicity of it.
There isn't anything I would change.

I like t the words to your poem and the photo is a perfect match
as a child I feared height and still do now, yet I didn't let my siblings know down the slide I went
It's so nice when you can remember pleasant memories you shared with your dad
thank you for sharing

That brought back so memories, Yvonne, not only of my own but what I would do with my boys, I used to love that bump in the middle and so did they. I enjoyed this poetry form, too, I'm going to be writing a bit more myself so want to try a few of these new(ish) styles. You have written a lovely poem, my friend, I really enjoyed reading it. :)) Sandra xx

Thank you so much, Sandra, for this wonderful review! Funny how the slide wasn't has high as I remember it. hahahaha
-
I'm shrinking, so the slide is beginning to grow again! lol. xxx
-
That's so true. I've lost an inch in the last year. I plan to live to be 102, so I've figured if I lose an inch a year, I'll only be 33 inches tall when I'm 102.
Looking forward to your posts.
-
LOL!!! We could then get away with a child's fare on the buses or taxis! Planes, even!! lol. Mind you, at 102, everyone will be falling over themselves trying to find out our secret! :))
-
Hadn't thought of that. Maybe we should think of charging admission.
-
LOL!! You are so funny, Yvonne, love you to bits. :)) xx

Back atcha! 8-)

A very well-written Sevenelle about the sliding board and the father who has a great senie of humor to entertain his children in the park with a fruit in his mouth to make them laugh and a memory for life.

Comment from Gloria ....
Oh, so that's what a sliding board looks like. And what a fantastic show your dad put on for you.
This is a really form, that one day I shall give a try. And your metre and rhyme as is your signature you in fine form.
