Kenning Mother Poem – Kenning Poems
A kenning poem can be a short poem or a long poem depending on what the writer prefers. The main purpose of a Kenning poem is to describe something without mentioning its name. It can be written as a riddle for the reader, or you can reveal the answer. They are very easy and fun to write, here is an example I wrote, I hope you enjoy it. Poem examples for children

Ooooh, I love this poem and the form. I had never heard of it before. I’ve been stuck in the doldrums, maybe this will jolt me out. Thank you Marinela.
You’re very talented Marinela.Great poem and great blog! Keep up the good work! Thanks for visiting my blog.
Wow, that is great. I think I may try this some day. You words make it look quit fun. Have a great week.
Hi Marinela .. yes mothers – and the idea of Kenning … I’d never heard of it – so thanks for enlightening me! Mothers certainly do all of those things ..
We sort of did a crossword and a codeword crossword yesterday – didn’t get very far .. but Mum participated quite a lot and enjoyed the interaction – we were waiting to do an ambulance “dash” to the hospital .. all well & she got back safely .. no emergency!
Cheers Hilary
Shalom Marinela. I started reading your poems now for the first time and could not stop. They are so nice!
Then I read ABOUT you. What a big and wonderful surprise to learn your age!
What a gift you have and are.
Cool form. Your lines have a really nice quick flow and provide great details in this Kenning portrait.
Yay! A Mother poem! Beautiful, Marinela!
A very fine poem, Marinela, so fluent, gentle, bright.
Happy Sunday!
Hey! That is the sweetest! Thank You! And Your room is soooo cool. Cheers and Namaste. 🙂
Yay, I learned something new! Kenning poems are wonderful, and this one in particular is a treasure. I love your blog and your background!

oops that last comment was under the name of my old blog (not really functional anymore). This is the new one
Beautiful poem.
Well described, kind of like implied poetry
Well written. This would make a lovely Mother’s Day card.
I had never heard of those! How neat!
Happy Tuesday!
Very good. I like haiku but seldom do it. I’d rather read it sometimes.
I don’t know what you call it but I like to write short descriptive sentences that describes something almost like you just did but this is about a photo or a photograph on my blog.
well done… really great poem. Thank you Marinela
You really know your mother so well, Been reading your poetry and I find them entertaining and wholesome. I can recommend this site to my daughter so she could learn poetry and I won’t worry. She’ll be reading a child-friendly site and a mind-stimulating one.
Keep em coming.
Absolutely wonderful. Big smiles here from this mom! 🙂
Does indeed sound like mothers all over the world, such a beautiful testament, Marinela!
Another beautiful poem from the great Marinela!
Marinela,
Hey girl, sorry I haven’t visited you for a while -and thanks for the follow (I thought you did that before -anyways. better so do it twice than not:):) )
Kenning sounds better to me than haiku (smile). If I do any poetry, it’s without rhyme and without any rules, lol.
