My new poem: 'Summer is a blue Checked Dress' When I see my class running and playing above the grey, playground concrete canvas, it's like a living work of art. #teachers #summer #poetry #poems #poetrycommuntity

It's #HaikuSaturday and this one is inspired by a hot, lazy day in the U.K. #haiku #poetry #poetrycommuntity #poem #sun #daydream #dream #hot #sunny

I didn't write this to be good or worthy. I wrote it because I needed to let the inside out. I wrote it to let my honesty flood onto a blank page #poetry #poetrycommuntity #poems #mother #mum #poet

A simple #Haiku poem about a man and a tree, both of which have grown and blossomed for the 20 years since I first knew them #poetry #poetrycommuntity #poem #love

A personal poem about the #1970s origins of my eclectic love of #music #poetry #poetrycommuntity #poem #music #punk #grease #peace

A simple poem of positivity for #Friday . Too many children I teach are far better at telling me what they don't like about themselves, rather than what they do.... never mind love #poetry #poetrycommuntity #poemsforkids #poems4kids #poet #poets #loveyourself

I've tried to write a poem as a model for children to use in #schools to explore their senses. In the end, I focussed on the the simple joys of a nose and toes. #poetry #poems #poem4kids #poemsforkids #poetrycommuntity #senses

The other night, my gorgeous mother took ill. I thought she was leaving us. Helpless, I wrote a poem; what else could I do? Where usually spring's first warm sun makes the world make sense, last Friday was the opposite: spring's sun did not make sense at all. Fortunately, my mum pulled through but I thought I'd share this snapshot poem anyway. #poetry #mother #mom #mum #death #poems #poetrycommuntity #spring
