Read a newspaper, or visit a news site.
Find a story that interests you, and make it the basis of your poem.

Write about what family means to an orphan child,
what a loving family home means to a homeless man
something with meaming, metaphors and description
E.g
Sitting in rags all tattered and torn,
He gazed through the window and loved what he saw
A raging coal fire, and some children to play
Just what he wished for on a cold winters day
The frost bit his finger and nibbled at his nose
and his shoes, thin as paper, could not warm his toes
But the warmth and the love that the family there told
Reached into his heart and blessed his wee soul
The dear little beggar boy was welcomed inside
To share christmas gifts and a log of yuletide
A meal he'd never dreamed of was served in a dish
And the sweet little child got his christmas wish
What do you dream of, when you're sat all alone
Money and chocolate, a new mobile phone
Or the simplest things that are taken for granted
Like a home and a family, to be loved and be wanted
Do you think of others or not have a care
when enjoying your holidays, do you see over there
See the dear little beggar boy at your windowsill
Let him in, spare a second, 'tis the season of goodwill
Just wrote it off the top of my head but just an example anyways hope ths helps x

our soldiers. I'll give you mine. It's not a poem, but I write rhythmic poetry. Maybe you can take some ideas
Freedom’s price
a web of scarlet rivers
poured from the soldiers side
puddles of the crimson tide
plunged the life
of one brave soul
into utter nothingness.
the bullet
that seared his skin
and brought the fatal blood
was but a small
price to pay
when compared
to freedom’s gain

Dah da da da dah die
Dah da da da dah die
Behind these prison walls
Doing my paces, doing my time
Spending my restless nights
Visioning faces, oh they are crying, crying
Prison a no bed a roses
The levity it makes mi bawl
I wish that Jah could come and take us back in time
[Cause I swear that I can be a better man
Yes I swear if only you could understand
The faith in me shall set me free reflection
The faith in me shall set me free reflection
Behind these metal bars
To Jah Jah I'm chanting
I pray for love devine
I'm oh so sorry a man
Deeply I'm hurting
The price ordained to be mine
Impossible to see the changes that I have made in my life
All they see is just the boy I left behind
Don't judge me wrong
Cause now I'm stronger than I was before
I was young and unwise
Didn't you hear my cry
Impossible to see the changes that I made in my life
All they see is just the boy I left behind
