WORLD POETRY DAY POEM

In the old days when I was at school

we read the poetry of people wearing

stern faces, with big bushy eyebrows,

waistcoats and ties, and hidden smiles.

—

Although sometimes the poets of olden times

wrote terribly funny and nonsense rhymes.

—

But the poets of today are

brighter and noisier and are

more easily seen and heard

and they write poems

that everyone can relate to

And they wear:

—

Shouty hats

And flowing dresses.

Squeaky boots

And coloured tresses.

—-

Flappy Cardies,

Rowdy socks.

Twirling shirts

And pants that rock.

—-

Itchy jumpers,

Twinkling eyes.

Smiles as wide

As big blue skies.

—-

Clappy hands

And tappy feet,

Warming up

A poetry beat!

—-

Tinkling voices,

Read out loud

Poems, pulling

In a crowd.

—

That’s what poets

Do today.

Let’s all shout

HIP- HIP HOORAY!
