Sophia Drinks the Tub
by Daddy
Daddy draws a bath for Sophia,
But Sophia drinks the whole tub dry!
She drinks herself full.
Legs crossed, and I think you know why.
Plus she drank all the water,
So she couldn’t wash her hair.
An owl decides to make
Its little nest up there.
Sophia decides
She will have a bath after all.
Clean as a whistle!
But, what about the owl?
It goes off
To live in a tree,
And everyone is, from then on
Fur ever family.

Dialogue Poetry Challenge Winners
Hannah Moore is a first-time grand prize winner with her dialogue poem, On Receipt of Bad News. This was a poem that genuinely engaged both with the exchange of our prompt, but also focussed on the way poetic rhythms of language could support the writer's conceit. It felt very truthful, too, the way one speaker wishes to ignore the news and focus on practicalities; there was a quiet heartbreak, here. Well done.
