Let's Read Some Poetry

A review of April is Poetry Month by

Did you know that National Poetry Month has been around since April 1996?  It was launched by the Academy of American Poets to remind "the public that poets have an integral role to play in our culture and that poetry matters." Since I don't read much poetry, I try every April to challenge myself to read some poetry. To help myself (and you) out I've put together some lists of poetry from last year and some new titles from the the first quarter of this year. This is the first of four lists and will give you a head's start for the upcoming month. Let's read some poetry!
