Once again, as the first Sunday of June arrives, it's our results day. We'd like to thank all of you who entered, and our judge, Alan Buckley, for his work reading and judging all your poems. You can read his report here. And we congratulate the winning poet - you can read their poems at the Results of the Competition 2025 page.
Wishing you all the best with your writing,
The Charm Poetry Team
