Happy National Poetry Month.
I can't help but love a month
with 50 degree days and poetry in it.
Poems: these artful, tiny treasures, words on a page,
gathered, collected and arranged in a way that can make us
smile, think, pause, feel, remember, cry and wonder.
Lines that stay a while, like these from Gwendolyn Brooks' poem
"Speech to the Young: Speech to the Progress-Toward"
"...Live not for the battles won
Live not for the end-of-the-song
Live in the along."
