Concrete Poem



In early February, before Lockdown, a party of Year 3 children from Boothroyd Primary Academy had a visit to the Mining Museum. While there they ran into Dave Alton, the museum's resident poet, who invited them to to collect words and phrases from the information boards. The intention was to use their contributions to make a sort of free verse poem. However, the flip chart page they subsequently produced is a work of art in its own right (should that be write?), a concrete poem of found words.
