Adder, Bluebell, Lobster: Wild Poems

If you add an adder to an adder

they are prone to have a dance,

they writhe around each other

till the strongest gets a chance

to push the other down.

Watch out for bossy Beetroot and Tish, the oldest Goldfish in the world; be enchanted by a Bluebell witch’s thimble, spot a dive-bombing Lark and a cute Great-Crested Newt.

From Adder to Wren, forty fantastic wild poems celebrate forty amazing animals, birds and plants – and their beautiful names. Read the poems and help poet Chrissie Gittins save them from extinction. This is nature close up, exciting – and wild.
