WRITE A POEM OR RAP ON THE THEME OF

CHRISTMAS DREAMING

What does ‘Christmas Dreaming’ bring to mind? 

Scenes of snow.. twinkling lights? Presents, relaxing, movies and treats? 

Spending time with those you love, or remembering those you miss.  


It’s your own personality and creative ideas that will make your poem unique. From silly to serious and everything in between. Do it your way! 

I look forward to reading lots of poetry, best of luck! 


Alex
