As Big As Life

As a child of only three, looking out over the big blue sea. Her eyes got huge with such glee, as the waves hit her tiny knees. Mommy I need to pee, in the water is the key. As big as life she can see, making her wanting to flee. At this young age did she make a plea, making this big as life agree. Will this wide blue sea hold Marie, or in years will it set her free?

I liked how you repainted the picture of being three! Kids love to tinkle in the sea or in pools))). I think it is great that you added a sense of humor to the the lyricism of this poem. Thus, Faving this one. Pangie xx

I enjoy your poem. The small child must feel a sense of grandeur as she sees something so big as the sea.
