ANON ONE is “An attractive slim volume, [the poems] ranging from the easily approachable to the challenging, each well-crafted and powerful.”

children’s poetry

The first two issues of Anon showcased the work of one anonymously submitting children's poet across ten pages, with illustrations by Scottish artist David McAleece.

Please note that this feature of the magazine has now been retired, and submissions of children's poetry are no longer invited.

In Anon One the selected children’s poet was Roger Stevens.

Whatever you do, don’t dance, Dad
Whatever you do, don’t dance.
Don’t wave your arms
Like a crazy buffoon
Who has fallen in love
With a lady baboon
Whatever you do, don’t dance.

In Anon Two the selected children’s poet was Robert Schechter:

My bee's in the biz
   of buzzing and his
      acclaim as a wiz
         has created a buzz.
      He's the best that there was
   and the best that there is.

He zags and he zigs,
   he zips and he zooms
      on flowers and twigs
      full of zinnia blooms…

        from My Champion Bee
                  by Robert Schechter
