POETRY
In Not Exactly Shakespeare we cover many different poetic forms
from the haiku to nonsense verse. While you have been writing, I've
been working right along side of you.
Here are my own efforts, listed by category. There are also general
compositions and poems for kids. I hope you enjoy them...
