National Poetry Month is celebrated each year in the month of April. This was first introduced by the Academy of American Poets in 1996 to spread awareness among people about poetry in the Unites States.
I got to know about the National Poetry Month by Libby app that I have with my public library.

Since this is the National Poetry, I have been reading poetry books this month.

I’m not reading poems, but I am writing a lot for national poetry month this year!
Wow!!! That’s great. Please share some with us as well.
Maya Angelou-A truly inspiring poet👼
This is my first book of her.
I am reading, You better be lightning by Andrea Gibson. Andrea’s poems speak to me.
Thanks for reading my post. I will surely read that one too. Thanks for a book recommendation.
