Holocaust Day+ Atmosphere Poems & Site Future

HOLOCAUST DAY POEMS ..

The 4th week of January sees the commemoration of Holocaust Day. Please visit I Respect
and scroll down home page for writing frames about this topic for schools – and for further information on this day. Please also visit Holocaust Day
for poems written in the past, linking football and the Holocaust .It’s not an easy thing to do, but it would be good if anyone can give this as serious try again, this year. This year’s theme for Holocaust Day is….. “Imagine…remember, reflect, react.”
With many thanks, Stuart.
PS Sorry I’ve written so little recently; I’m afraid the muse is still near a railway line and an allotment – but I’m going to watch Swindon and Forest next week, so that might help eventually move the muse down the line. Stu.
