Hi everyone, thank you to all those who have sent in their poems for the Winter Waves prompt.

This week I’m lucky enough to be in Saigon, Vietnam! The image below is what I can see outside my window this morning and I wondered, what do you see outside your window? Feel free to still contribute to Winter Waves or send in poems about your own interests.

Looking forward to receiving your fantastic poetry! Don’t forget the new address ozchildrenspoetry@gmail.com

Here’s my contribution:

Sunrise brings

clouds tinged with yellow and orange

as families wake to start their day

or find their way home to rest.

Sunrise brings

barges along the river carrying

everything from rocks to rice.

Sunrise brings

a view of a city that never really sleeps

and the sounds of life

beginning another day.
