On this first day of National Poetry Month, I’d like to revisit the poetry themed posts I’ve done in previous years. Are you ready for the list?
-
Poetry in Ten: Incorrect Merciful Impulses – I used ten quotes from Camille Rankine’s poetry collection to create a book review of sorts.
-
Summer Reading List: The Poetry Edition – Recommendations of poetry books to read during the summer months.
-
Finding Love (Poetry) at the Library – Poetry appropriate for lovers and non.
-
One Chapter, One Poem: Perkins-Valdez, Smith, and Young – A brief review of Kevin Young’s book and a bonus review of Tracy K. Smith’s memoir (which I finished!)
-
Some Snail Mail – A poetry challenge I gave myself to send you poetry. It still applies for this year if you’re down.
And guess who is coming back to the this area this month?
P.S. I’m keeping a running tally of how many rejections I’m receiving for poetry that I’m sending out. A whopping 5 rejections so far. My goal is to send my work to at least 20 different literary magazines/websites.
Wow national poetry month
Whoops my finger touched send before I finished what I was saying. I love this article! But not as half as much as I love you😘 you are the greatest poet that ever was and is. You need to publish more of your poems. Although you have already been published mommy’s angel more is to come☺️😇 I guarantee that more is to come!
Good luck with the poetry!!!
Thank you.
