Well-Versed: Youth Poetry from Summer 2025

Well-Versed: Pongo Poets Online  is our online poetry submission program. Through the program, we make writing activities available for free on our website, and invite young people to submit their poems to us.

The above pieces were submitted to Pongo between July and September of 2025. We want to thank Zac, Saba, Iva, Oluwafemi, and Daniel for sharing these incredible pieces with us. Read and reflect on their moving words, and spread the inspiration by sharing these poems with your friends, families, and communities!
