My Poem (a poem for children) by Leanne Dyck

Why share? What do you lose? What do you win?

Reading My Poem

This is my poem
Mine, mine, mine
Mine and mine alone.
It's a poem all about me.
No one else's poem just--

Hey, what are you doing here?
Yeah, you.

Who told you you could read my poem?
It's mine, not yours.
Not y--

Hey, what are you doing?
That looks like fun.

Can I play?
Later, we can have fun reading my poem.

You'll like it.
It's all about me.
