National Poetry Day 2011 logo
The event of today
And this year’s theme
Taps a competitive stream,
On the subject of ‘Games’,
Recreational aims,
High spirits and fun,
Second to none,
During night-time or day,
Home and away,
In competition or jest,
Inspiring the best,
On fields of green,
To the digital screen.
So if you’ve got the time
For verse and for rhyme
Why not take a quick look
At our own poetry nook?
Even if not to inspire,
Then simply admire!
