National Poetry Month Poetry Party Poetry

Let's get together on Zoom the Last Friday of National Poetry Month to celebrate Poetry. Tell us what poets and poems made you fall in love with poetry and share that inspiration with others.
We'll commiserate with anyone plowing through the Poem-a-Day Challenge or just generally trying to be a poet in the 21st century.

"Even if the darkness precedes and follows us, we have a chance, briefly, to shine." ~ Arthur Sze, U. S. Poet Laureate
