The English department ran a National Poetry Day competition for KS3 recently and were hugely impressed with all of the entries. Congratulations to the winner, Evie S in Year 8, for her beautiful and moving poem “A New Normal,” featured below. We will feature the two runner up poems (by Peter F and Emilka H) in the next few weeks and would like to say a massive well done to everyone who took part!
A New Normal
I can colour the world the way I like
No object will be alike
That’s how I colour my picture
I can always see a flicker
You can see the world in a different colour
Make it your own
Make your colours known
Make your voice heard
Make it soar like a bird
Don’t let anyone tell you
That the sky has to be blue
Nor the grass has to be green
That’s what’s been
It’s time for a new normal
To make our world enhanced
To make the world a better place
For colours to dance.
