      How can I find poetry for teenagers easy to understand and depict
      Submitted by adelfa mora on 2 November, 2008 - 20:58

      My school has organised an art event at Christmas called "Literary Competition" in which the students will be asked to develop an artistic creation inspired in poems.

      I would like to choose six representative pieces.

      May you give me some suggestions about the poems I could use?

      Thank you very much

      The Trees-Philip Larkin

      The Trees, by Philip Larkin, although there is a lot more to it, is about springtime. Humans age visibly whilst the trees and flowers look young and big and strong with thier new leaves. Might be a good one for you!
