Hello everyone.
I am a child myself, (12 years old), and I think we need some more happy, enthusiastic, child friendly poetry, that puts a smile on everyone's faces. Something about teddy bears, flying kites, running around, Christmas Eve, and anything to do with having fun as a kid. This does not mean only children can enter. This contest is open for anyone with fantastic childhood memories.
RULES!
*No sad poems!!!
*No swearing
*Correct punctuation and spelling
* Have fun!
*ENTER!
I like any type of poetry, but preferably not too long and not too short. Rhymes, free verse, anything, go for it! Just keep it on topic!
This contest ends really soon so hurry! Don't miss your chance to share your childhood memories with everyone. I can't wait to hear them all.
Enter as many entries as you like.
