Calling all young poets

Announcing CSM's 11th annual Young Poets Contest.
Anyone in preschool through high school is eligible. Entries must be postmarked or submitted online by Friday, Dec. 1. We'll publish the winning poems in early January.

Submit up to three poems; you choose the subject. Remember to keep the focus of your poem narrow and your descriptions specific. [Click up the live-link at CSM, where] we provide a few tips for writing a poem. You may also want to read winning poems from previous years - see the winners from 2003, 2004, and 2005.

Try your wings as a young poet.
