April is National Poetry Month.

April is National Poetry Month.  So what does that mean?

National Poetry Month is a month-long, national celebration of poetry established by the Academy of American Poets. The concept is to widen the attention of individuals and the media to the art of poetry, to living poets, and to poetry books and journals. The hope is to increase the visibility and availability of poetry in popular culture while acknowledging and celebrating poetry’s ability to sustain itself.

So what can you do to celebrate poetry? Check out this list of 30 ways to celebrate at poets.org for a start.
