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, the Comedian

There once was a dog, a Welsh Springer.
With rude comments he landed his zingers.
He wasn't a hit.
That's how he got bit.
His jokes were Welsh Springer humdingers.


    OK, so there you have a limerick.  The rhyming pattern for this five line poem is A,A, B, B, A.  The limerick is meant to be a humorous verse form.  Your challenge for today is to re-write the last line.  What can you come up with?  Or, write your own limerick about a pet animal.  Have fun playing with poetry.  

      Keri is hosting the Friday Poetry Roundup on her blog here.  Thanks for hosting us, Keri.
