National Poetry Month 2016 |
Do you write poetry? I've gotten out of the habit of writing poems. When I was working, I kept thinking "why am I working here? I have the heart of a poet. I should be writing." Now I have the time to pen a poem, but I don't. So I'm using this event to nudge me back into poetry writing. And I can't wait.
One of my favorite poetry books is Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein. Watch the video of his poem, Sick.

SICK, poem by Shel Silverstein
One of my favorite poets is Robert Frost. He wrote The Road Not Taken and Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.
