do we need to have a theme for our poem? Or is it just a bunch of poems with illustrations?

For the colour poem, can every line be a different colour or does it all have to be one colour?

You do not need a them for your poem anthology. You can choose to but you don't have to. It doesn't matter to me.
The colour poem should be a poem about one colour, Lauren, not each line being a different colour.
