A showcase for poems written by children and young people — at home, at school and in our workshops. All poems remain copyright © their authors.
We never publish surnames, schools, towns, photos or contact details.
Every poem by an under-18 needs consent from a parent, carer or teacher.
Every poem is read by an adult before it appears on the site.
A poem can be taken down at any time, just by asking.
Poems should be sent by a parent, carer or teacher. We read every one, and we choose a selection to feature on the site.
Writing about big feelings is brave. If you are finding things hard, please talk to a grown-up you trust. You can also speak to Childline for free, any time, on 0800 1111 or at childline.org.uk.
