    1. The Coventry blitz blew our city to bits.  

    2. Our ruins, our old cathedral, are a stark reminder of what happened one dark night in the city of Coventry. 

    3. Our young children had to face some difficult times as some children have had to watch their parents die in front of their young eyes. 

    4. The young children had no one to wipe their tears that ran down their young faces.

    5. Their children were left with smells of burning and fearful memories of hearing and seeing bombs coming black-led colour skies to hang over the city of Coventry. 

    6.  We are thankful to those soldiers who lived in Coventry and put their lives in danger to protect our city of Coventry in their hour of need.

    7. The soldiers will live in our memories of what they have done for your city of Coventry.

    8. The names of lives lost in the Coventry blitz are also placed in the ruins of the old Coventry cathedral. 

    9. We pray that each person who died is at peace now looking at the loved one who they left. behind.

    I am an enthusiastic young man with a fantastic passion for poetry. I could inspire people with disabilities and not a disability to love poetry writing. I feel the role help me get my poetry writing audience. I have great determination to carry out the role to the best of my ability. I have a poem that has been published in a book. I feel this role will give me a stepping stone to enable my poetry to inspirational to others.    

    I would appreciate hearing what you think about both poems

    I really like both poems @Globster, especially the one about the blitz.
    The Coventry blitz blew our city to bits.  
    I think this is a really good opening line!

    The 300 word statement looks good too. I think it's great that you've managed to include a bit about what you'd want to achieve, as well as what you can offer to the role as a disabled poet.

    @Globster I see you've been busy again! ;)

    I really like both of these poems. You've clearly given a lot of thought to each entry, and it seems to me that a lot of work has gone into each one? Well done. 

    Like Tori_Scope I think that's a great opening line as well. That's a really attention-grabber!
    The Coventry blitz blew our city to bits.  

    Out of curiosity, how do you work when it comes to your writing? Do you write each of your poems all in one go? Or do you keep adding to them bit by bit? Also, do you finish them and never go back? Or do you find yourself editing them and re-writing some parts? 

    As always, it's great to read your work. Thank you for sharing and all the best with the Coventry competition!
