New
Beginnings
New
Beginnings
The
start of
the New
Year is
the
beginning
of a new
era.
We
have made
it through
2005. What
are your
thoughts
and
feelings
on the
last year?
Have you
completed
ambitions
of your
own or
watched
others
achieve
their
dreams?
How did
this make
you feel?
What about
your hopes
and
aspirations
for the
future?
What would
you like
to see;
world
peace,
global
environmental
issues
addressed,
aid for
the third
world
increased
or a
decline in
crime?
All
these
issues are
something
that we as
a nation
feel
strongly
about. But
what does
a new
beginning
mean to
you? Maybe
a new
start in
your life,
a birth of
a baby, a
New Year’s
resolution
that you
will not
break! Or
maybe you
are just
looking
forward to
what’s
still to
come.
Whatever
your views
are on new
beginnings
we want to
know about
them in
the form
of a poem.

Beginnings’

Love
Love
If
you think
you could
demonstrate
your
feelings
in the
form of a
poetic
verse, we
would love
to hear
from you.
Dedicate
your poems
to the
object of
your
desire
whoever
that might
be; it
could be
the
partner
who adds
zing to
your life
and twangs
your
heartstrings,
or it
might be
someone
you
haven’t
even
approached
yet who
sets your
pulse
racing!
Now
is the
time for
all you
romantics
out there
to put pen
to paper!
Compose a
poem that
is from
the heart,
add a
special
dedication,
and show
that
person in
your life
just how
much you
care about
them.

Poems
for Mum
Poems
for Mum
Of
all the friends we have
in the world there is
one who will always be
there for us, supporting
us and giving us advice
no matter what we have
done - that person is
our Mum. For all the
times our mothers have
helped and supported us,
how about giving
something back?
We
are looking for poems
that reflect the
essential role mothers
play in our lives. To
show just how much you
care and appreciate
them, we would like you
to write a poem
dedicated to your Mum.
