Your poem paints a wonderful picture and brings back some of my best memories of when my sisters and I kept our tree limbs polished by running up and down their broad limbs.
Great job.

Ha. What a clever poem.
Trotting through the trees...
Climbs in curls...
Jumping, reaching branches...
Nicely done. Best of luck in the contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

What a nice poem to read. I like it because it's about innocence intact. Little girls being little girls. As a former tree climber I could feel the thrill of the climb and the excitement of being eye level with birds. I really enjoyed this. Gretchen

It does my heart good to see children clambering nimbly through the branches of the trees, they do so well, as if God put them there for that very purpose. He did, didn't He? Beautifully written in rhyming alliteration, good luck, my friend blessings Roy

Great job with alliteration, flowing naturally with good rhyming theme. Yes, indeed, little girls just want to have fun and know how to achieve that.

This seven x seven alliterative poem, She Climbs, has all the requirements of the challenge and brings back those wonderful years of innocent play and endless energy.

Girls can be tom boys. Your poem rhymes and brings out the feeling of springtime. When they climb trees and hang upside down like monkeys, they are children filled with energy.
