Anthology

Blog Posted:7/15/2025 11:18:00 AM

Hello all. Having recently spent a lot of time working in schools with young children on poetry and writing, I think the next anthology should be dedicated to children. They are the next poet lauerates of our future and theirs. Poetry is alive and well and it was very refreshing to see how they watched, listened, studied and then expressed themselves in their poems, it brought not only tears to them and their parents, but it brought astonishment to many a face.

My latest poem is told from a child's perspective but it would really only be authentic if actually written by children so not sure it would work here. On the other hand, if you're strictly looking for a dedication acknowledgement only then admins might consider

It's such a blessing to work with children and see their amazing reactions to their successes, David. I know you're thankful for the opportunity to teach them. I want to thank you for your service. A poet in Texas, Bill p.s. great idea for an Anthology!

Great Idea. It would be a fun project for all of us who are still little kids at heart and who love to work with kids and poetry! Thanks for the suggestion.
