Holocaust Memorial 2012
We have been thinking about the awfulness of the Holocaust during World War 2. Below are some poems we have written.
Our Poems were presented at the Holocaust Memorial Service in Belfast at the end of January. |

ANGER Crying in the corner Shouting in your bedroom Crashing at the door Blackness from the dark room
Salt from your tears Blood from your cuts Redness of your face Kicking at the wall
By Grace, Lucy, Victoria and Tammy.

Fear
The whistle of the wind The shadow of a tree on a window
The smell of smoke A trail of red blood on the ground Someone’s hands on my shoulder. By Aaron and Ethan m.

Fear is Fear is gunfire nearby A knock on the door A dry mouth A gulp The loud smashing of a window Creaking floorboards A guard’s uniform By Lex, Jake and Hugh

Loneliness Water without a cup, Sharp stones beneath my feet, Plain bread without butter, Everyone getting chocolate except me, Grey - a gloomy colour, Silence - a sound of loneliness.
By Leah , Beth , Alex , Emma and Holly.

Save Us His old friend’s laughter echoed in his head He saw the dark colours rush before his eyes grey, black and blue He sees the guards whipping the filthy prisoners, punching, kicking them to the ground Silently they were led away into a dark dim room And from the other wall behind all she could hear was save us!
