Welcome

This is my playground for poetry written for children with ideas and inspiration for writing your own poems. Come on in. Sit for a spell, have a cup of words to swirl around and make your own cup of poetry. I'm so glad you are here. I hope you'll find the Kingdom of Poetry a fun place to be.

Polar Bear

Polar Bear
on an ice floe      the moon is shining bright.
                                     
Polar Bear
on an ice floe     his coat drips wet and white.

Polar Bear
on an ice floe      catches fish with his paws.

Polar Bear
on an ice floe      eats seals with his claws.

Polar Bear
on an ice floe      he's hungry as can be.

Polar Bear
on an ice floe      I hope he doesn't see me.



     This is a poem for two voices.  Can you try writing our own poem for two voices today?  Have fun writing.

     The Poetry Friday Roundup is hosted by Catherine Johnson this week.  Hop over to her blog for more poetry fun.  Have a great Friday the Thirteenth.

Magic Swimmers

Sea lions--
magic swimmers,
in their eyes
the sea's reflection.

Slick soft fur,
long dark whiskers,
they brush against me
with pinniped flippers.

 They sing
all day long,
a laughing tune,
a loud barking song.
