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.

My Dog's Poems

My dog is sleeping with poetry,
He dreams of the poem's beat.
He's chasing a rabbit, a bird, a deer.
You can tell by his moving feet.

The poems with animals are
the ones he likes the best.
His dreams are of poetry
each time he takes a rest.



     Name an animal or an object.  Now what kind of poetry would it like to hear?  What kind of poems would a carrot want? How about a rock?  Can you write a poem about that today.

    This could inspire a picture book showing the poetry beat of a dog's dream. I imagine it something like the Bear Hunt activity. You are SO clever. If I were an agent, I'd scoop you up!
