Poetry

What has poetry got to do with science? At the Cambridge Science Festival on Saturday 19th March
young poets (aged between 5 and 35!) joined poet in residence Richard Burns and the Converse team for
a poetry workshop.

This Poem

This poem jumps about the Earth
This poem is like a pink bird
This poem is called Space Shuttle
And it zooms beyond the wizard’s castle.
This poem is like a moon of Saturn
This poem is gold and silver and violet.
This poem is as beautiful as a red ruby
This poem glistens in the black night.
