In year 6 we've been very busy finding our voices.
In literacy we've been reading poems and finding out about the poets feelings and thoughts.
So we've decided to give it a go.
Take a look at our poems, inspired by the issues in our world today.

Don't Cut
By Cameron and Denis
Don't cut the trees,
so we can breathe.
Don't cut the trees,
we can save the environment.
Don't cut the trees,
to save endangered animals.
Don't cut the trees,
recycle paper.
Don't cut the trees,
protect and look after them.
STOP CUTTING DOWN TREES
OR WE ALL ARE DEAD!

Can you stop whats happening today?
Can you stop wasting and throwing away?
Can you stop using all your electric goods at once?
Can you stop using your car as much?
Can you just stop littering as much?
OH,PLEASE. OH PLEASE. STOP GLOBAL WARMING!
But most of all can you stop global warming?
Can you stop the polar bears from falling off the ice?
OH,PLEASE. OH,PLEASE. STOP GLOBAL WARMING!

Then suddenly …
Looking out my window
No children playing or laughing
Instead people crying and calling for help.
Looking out my window
All I can see is…
Police cars, men with guns,
Fires blazing and people robbing.
Looking out my window
Birmingham has turned into
a horrible unwanted city
to live in.

People, I think can sometimes be silly
But they don’t know what they are doing
They are destroying trees and lilies
But still nobody is booing
Some people are lazy
Some think everything is fun
Instead of buying in the outside
They just go to the forest
Chop chop chop chop and done
STOP THIS STUPIDNESS
OR WE WILL BE GONE!!!

How many times do you use your gas?
How many times do you use your cigarettes?
We all know one day global warming will happen
SO STOP CAUSE IF YOU DON’T
YOU’LL DESTROY
THE ONLY PLANET
WITH LIFE
AND MANKIND.
GLOBAL WARMING
IS
HAPPENING!

Why kill, why hurt, why fight, why hate
They're Shooting They're Looting
They have got to stop before a bomb goes POP!!!
Why kill, why hurt, why fight, why hate

All our wasteful needs and greed,
Is stopping our animals to breathe,
We don’t realise it,
But we are to blame!
For damaging our earths wonderful name,
If we don’t STOP it will be too late,
We would have left our earth in a terrible state ,
The chemicals we throw in the air,
And we act like we don’t even care,
Our waste of food is shocking,
Our food in the bin is rotting,
The carbon dioxide just floats about,
Just then our earth starts to shout,
In the future I worry,
Our plants and animals are going to scurry,
Its never too late to start on a clean slate,
Come on mankind we can negotiate,
In a way we all appreciate,
If we come together and unite,
We can win and have a friendly fight,
__________________________________________________________________________________
Our planet is being polluted,
And warnings we are given are being muted.
We need to stop our harmful ways,
And think about how we appraise,
The earth our home which we pollute,
But now we need to know the truth.
We need to see our home is being abused,
And we need to stop before we lose,
Everything that nature produces,
We destroy and make excuses.
We need to take a final chance,
To save our planet in advance.
We need to treat the earth truly kind,
After all it is yours and mine.

Peace on Earth
By Geneva
We consumers do not care about our needy world,
And yes I mean the one with trees that gives us oxygen.
And why do we destroy the Earth when all it did was twirled
Instead of saving animals we care about our fashion.
Committing deforestation just to hunt for gold.
We don’t even care about horrid global warming
We still don’t care that winter wasn’t cold
With illegal poaching we don` t find that appalling.

Silly citizens
By Haroon

But they don’t know what they are doing

Pandemonium Pollution
By Vim
People we need you to see,
How our earth’s future is going to be.All our wasteful needs and greed,
Is stopping our animals to breathe,
We don’t realise it,
But we are to blame!
For damaging our earths wonderful name,
If we don’t STOP it will be too late,
We would have left our earth in a terrible state ,
The chemicals we throw in the air,
And we act like we don’t even care,
Our waste of food is shocking,
Our food in the bin is rotting,

The Earth Our Home
By Zainub
We consuming beings need to realize,
That our planet is dying before our very eyes.Our planet is being polluted,
And warnings we are given are being muted.
We need to stop our harmful ways,
And think about how we appraise,
The earth our home which we pollute,
But now we need to know the truth.
We need to see our home is being abused,
And we need to stop before we lose,
Everything that nature produces,
We destroy and make excuses.
We need to take a final chance,
To save our planet in advance.
We need to treat the earth truly kind,
After all it is yours and mine.
