Respected Sir,
I read your poem ' Let me die a young man's death'. It was great and I understand that the said poem is amongst the 50 all time great poems. I wish you give some lessons to young poets like me and help us hone our skills.
With humble regards,

'The Lesson'
I really enjoyed reading this poem because it was really funny but on the other hand it makes you think about how you could improve in our behaviour and makes us understand that sometimes the teachers get crazy when we are shouting and doing all sorts of bad things.
I think you are a really phenomenal poet and I look forward to read another poem from you. I really want to say a colossol 'thank you'

Dear Mr Roger McGough,
I am very appalled at your poem 'The Lesson'. It is a bad influence to all children. Even though it was very humourous but it still is a very bad influence to children. It is an absolute draught. In future I do expect for you to do more suitable poems for children to read. I was learning about your poetry this week. I was totally disgusted. The behaviour in this poem is gritty however I think children should never be taught never even to be heard of this poem.
Yours faithfully,
Hadsan. Aged 10.

Dear Roger McGough
I am writing to tell you how I feel and what I think of your poem The Lesson. I think that your poem should have been for adults because if a young child reads this, what thoughts will they have in mind? Since I started reading it, it made me feel bad even though you used lots of rhyming words.
Whilst I was reading it it made me sick therefore I think you shouldn't give this poem to young children, furthermore I think children will be afraid of their teachers.
On the other hand I thought you worked really hard for this seeing as all the rhyming words you used children will like some of it.
Even though you used lots of rhyming words which is good I dont think you should have put in the shooting and killing bit.
My final thought all together: I think your poem was disgusting, rubbish, dross, muck, nonsense, garbage, lumber, rubble, scrap, trash, waste and stupid.
