KEEP THEM.

Your poems are a part of you, they're what you were and how you felt when you wrote them. It's only natural that you look back at some of them and think "Geez, why in the world did I write that? I'm so different now". Any type of art (and writing IS an art) is basically a log of your ever-changing life and feelings. You wouldn't want to edit something like that.

I suggest putting your poems in chronological order (that is, if you put down the date when you wrote them). That way, the reader will be able to follow your changes.
