Children's poetry
Young poets -- send us your favourite poems and we'll publish them for you on this page. If they've been published before, then give us the reference: book or magazine title, publisher, date, ISBN if available.
Your poems don't have to have been published first, they don't have to be prizewinners, they don't have to be better than anyone else's -- but they DO have to be your own best work.
Work at it first, don't be in a hurry, have another look, see if it really says what you want it to say, clearly, without wasted words. Trim it if you can, try putting it another way to see if it works better. When you're REALLY happy with it, send it to us.
Send us a picture of yourself too if you like, or a drawing, even a cartoon -- scanned images only please, don't send prints.
