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.

CELEBRATE!

Celebrate,
let's dance!
Let your toes
tap, tap, tap.
Let your hands
clap, clap, clap.
Let your body sway.
Today is a special day.
Celebrate me!
Celebrate you!
Celebrate all the things
we can do.

     What is one thing you can do?  Can you write a poem today about the specialness of you?  Have fun writing your own poem.

Sunday

Sunday is a fun day
I'm thinking of you.
It's a come play day.
What shall we do?

      What are you going to do today?  I hope you have your own fun day.  What would be the best play day for you?  Can you write a poem about it?

Counting

Count all the stars,
count all the moon light.
Count all the bird songs
that bring their delight.

And when you're 
done counting
here's what to do
take that number,
multiply by two.

The number is still
not as great as
the gifts I receive
from you,
there is
always more fun
when I am
with you.


    Happy Sunday.  Today is a good day for listening.  Can you write a poem about something you hear?  Have fun.
