Poetry Roundabout is the go-to place to find anything and everything about poetry for young people. Poems do not have to be written specifically for young people to be accessible to them; content is however always suitable. This is a place of fun poetry, interesting poetry, lyrical poetry, poems in all different forms and shapes and sizes! Visit for interviews with the best children’s poets, poetry news, how to write poems, poems of course, and poetry book reviews… and more besides! For teachers, young people’s poets, and poets who are young people!
Teachers, Editors, Publishers, people who wish to employ a poet! At the top in the tabs you will find an A-Z of poets and their poems from the UK, US and round the world.
this is such an interesting poem! I have read it a few times, round and round.

Thank you! I’ve written a whole load of these shape poems, they are in Apes to Zebras. Sea stars are amazing – they have skin on the outside, and are hollow, and have skin all over their insides, too! So they are always aware of what the sea is doing… every little movement. They can also grow back any limb, and if you cut them into pieces, as long as there is a middle left on each part, each part will grow into a new sea star!
