Yours was clever. It was written with intelligence and creativity. Hmm. Hard to explain. Okay, let me try; your poem came across with style, rapid flow, cascading down the page. I actually found myself being "pulled" into reading at a faster tempo at times as if I were on an actual ride while I was reading. Your flow is unique and very strong. Seriously, it pulled me. Never have felt that. Your word choices are also deliberate. "Gianter".
Bottom line...You can tell by the incredible flow, alliteration, onomonopia, kinetic energy and deliberate word choices, that this was written by an established poet INSIDE a child's voice. That's the creative talent that shines through to me. As I said, I didn't read the other ones but this is tremendously done.

Comment from Selina Stambi
Twinnie, dear, what a gorgeous children's poem!
The bravado and anxiety in the little voice just rang out with just the right touch of smiliness!
You actually transported me to my childhood when I got swallowed up by a large wave and honestly thought I was done for good!
LOVE the horror of what could happen as the shark's afternoon tea .... little, fat, juicy legs!!!
This is your unique style - makes me smile!
Hope you win, Twinnie! Hugs xx Sonali

How nice a photo of you and you dad at this young age. I loved the poem, it is a real children one. When they are at the stage of denying and saying no. Great and original entry. Best wishes for the contest.

Everything is okay when dad is there to protect you from what ever might be dangerous. Good luck in the prompt. God loves you and I do too.

Comment from Glasstruth
This poem is so alive and filled with emotionally charged feelings of fear denied, but another person inside that head says no. Love how capitalize some words and move the poem downward as if it were a rushing river. Yes, I know it's an ocean. Wonderful. I can definitely get my teeth into this. Les

Comment from me_tudor
This was great. It was very visual. I was imagining you as a little girl being pulled out to sea and I was afraid. But, I'm glad it turned out okay since your dad had your hand.

Truly a child's perspective Sharyn. What child could be frightened with daddy holding their hand?
I really like the way you have written this, the repetition of I'm not really adds punch. You can hear a child saying it.
Great job, good luck in the contest.
