I agree with both MOTB and Dave - poetry is best read at a speaking pace, whether or not you utter the words, but if you're used to reading quickly it can be hard to concentrate. It could also be, of course, that a poem that doesn't lodge in the mind isn't a very good one, whether written for children or not.<br /><br />It's been a good break from routine, Marion, thanks.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-1686894517894088642011-02-27T10:23:02.936+00:002011-02-27T10:23:02.936+00:00If I read aloud my eyes and my mouth often seem to...If I read aloud my eyes and my mouth often seem to bypass my brain - so after I've finished I have no idea what was written.
