02/24/2024 Poetry by Children   Leave a comment

I thought we should visit some children today and read some of their outstanding poetry. Many of these kids are between the ages of 4 and 13 and are from various English-speaking countries around the globe. I find their poetry extremely innocent and pure because they write what they feel without any real awareness of political correctness or the many biases that seem to be everywhere these days. Enjoy them.

THE SUNBEAMS

It’s a sunny, sunny day today,

There’s not a fluffy cloud in the sky.

The sky’s all blue in a light blue haze,

The orange sun is shining as it stalks along the sea,

And leaves a shiny golden path, for me to walk along.

TREES

The trees share their shade with

all who pass by,

But their leaves whisper secrets

only to the wind.

GOD

I wonder

how God lives

in heaven,

when the clouds

seem to be collapsing

like broken birds.

MY FEELINGS

I am fainty,

I am fizzy,

I am floppy.
