Poetry month is NOT for poets anyway, but...Oh dear! Poetry month is NOT for poets anyway, but for making others aware that poetry has not died and dried and sighed off into the sunset.<br /><br />I think any of the "month" things have a place. It is a time set aside to focus a little bit more on whatever the thing is, be that goats or poetry. So, we have 12 "months" of dedication and awareness to 12 different things... maybe we will be kinder people with such narrowed positive foci. I'm for anything that builds up (or even pretends to build up) a positive. So let's have National Smile Month, National Volunteer Month, National Hugs Month, National Chocolate Month, National Handshake Month, or National Bedtime Story Month and National Six more positive things... I just want to celebrate positives in this world of violence and racism and ugly slogans. Poetry Month... I'll celebrate and promote it. <br /><br />And lets face it...poetry has been and continues to be pretty darned good for us! Grouse not my poet friend, grouse not but celebrate!
