Waxing poetic

BoardBuzz was inspired by some pint-sized poets while perusing the paper earlier today. The Kid's Post (a section of the Washington Post) published the winning poems in its annual poetry contest in today's edition of the paper.

It's hard to pick our favorite -- they range from sweet to funny to sobering -- but they're all quite good. Here's one that made BoardBuzz smile:

A Bird's Springtime

Upon this tree I build my nest
Where leaves nor branches stir
May the smooth bark protect me.
The rounded leaves hide me.
And may I never hear a cat's purr.
--Luci Finucan, 11
