My granddaughter came to see us today along with her mum, dad and little brother holding a piece of folded paper saying “Grandma I’ve written another poem” She then stood in the middle of the room to read it to us:
❄️❄️❄️
The Frosty Winter.
Cold winds burns your little face
Blustery breezes sway back and forth
A Robbin with a burning breast
Fields as white as a snow leopard
Snowy air as cold as an ice cube
But a blood red orange sun sparkles in my eye.
By Ruby aged 9
❄️❄️❄️
I thought it was very descriptive, with a good choice of words. She wanted me to put it on my site to see if she gets any likes 😉
Well, that little apple didn’t fall far from the tree, Elaine! I especially love the imagery of the first line. 😉 xoxoM

There is a publisher that publish kids poems. We paid to have our daughter’s poem included in it one year.

She amazes me, I would love her to do more. She told her teacher that I do lots of poems online and the teacher asked her how she could find them 😳

It could be her creative space, so she can share poems, pictures and anything she likes, then not so much pressure to write the perfect poem 😊
