Today, I have written a
nature poem for National Poetry Month. This year on April 29th,
there will be a free virtual reading of poems commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary
of the Academy of American Poets. However, there are more ways to celebrate
National Poetry Month at home. You can have your poetry reading with your
cell phone or in Zoom with your family. Pick a poem that you like to read or
read your written poem to your family members in a recording.
Reading and writing
poetry can be a fun way to pass the time at home. The possibilities are endless
for writing poetry with the family. Every day in April, your family members can
write, read, or discuss poetry for thirty minutes. Also, your family can
learn about the vocabulary words that are used through the Poetry Foundation
website. The website has tips to learn different types of poetry and how to
write your poems.
It also teaches you how
to read a poem. Also, you can subscribe to their poetry magazine.
Another great website is the Poets Organization which has thirty ways to
celebrate National poetry at home. It recommends writing poetry while being
outside whether it is a park, your backyard, or any place that will inspire you
to write poems. Additionally, you can subscribe to a poem a Day podcast.
