I have decided to try to make these into two books; one an ABC of children’s poetry, and the other A Children’s ABC of poetry for Grownups, as some of the poems I have written seem to be about children from an adult’s perspective, rather than for children.
So – this next batch of posts will be filling in the gaps! Children’s poems first. If you want to see the whole collection, they can be found in categories.
C IS FOR CHAMELEON
I would so like to be
a chameleon
When my aunt
Comes to tea
I could stand
Very still
by the wall
And she
Wouldn’t
See me
At all!
