Are you up for a creative challenge? Each week I’ll post a picture plus a word. They might – or might not – have any connection. Then it’s over to you to write a poem for children inspired by the word and picture. Send your poem to me at traffa-m(at)bigpond.net.au and I’ll post a selection on the site.

Last week’s first Words and Pictures post of the sneakers picture and the word walk drew a great response and I’ll be posting a selection of the poems in the next few days. This week I’ve selected a castle door. Doorways always spark my imagination and I begin to consider possibilities…where does this lead? Who will enter? Who will leave? Where does your imagination take you?
