On the Dirigible Balloon dirigibleballoon.org you'll find a cornucopia of wonderful poems imagining the future. They're free, they're safe, they'll take you to fantastical places, they'll make you smile, they'll make you think ... what are you waiting for?

Happy #NationalPoetryDay to all who celebrate!

Can you believe I now have 30 children's poems up on the Dirigible Balloon website (along with many other fab poets)?! Here they are in all their glory - have a browse if you have a moment.

Thanks to @northernjim.bsky.social for having me!
