3rd prize: Young People’s Poetry
Poems on the Move & Poems on the Buses Exhibitions

The bus is going where I want to go
Though where that is I don’t exactly know
Though I know I’ll know when I get where I’m going
And in a sense it’s more fun not knowing
Where exactly the bus is going,
Though perhaps if it’s just toing and froing
I might be better off just knowing
And it’s hard to know if where I want to go
Is where the bus driver is going to go
When where that is I don’t exactly know
So perhaps we’ll just go to and fro
Until I know where I want to go.
