Wonderful day at the Southbank Centre with my son Morgan Rhys who is one of the #FoyleYoungPoets 2018 at just 12. How proud can I be?!
Oh my word, this is so worth a read! ๐ฒ We have much to learn from our young people (I have never doubted it). Subject matter, layout, punctuation, metaphors - they've got it all going on, in some very innovative ways. Thanks The Poetry Society #Foyleyoungpoets
