April is National Poetry Month in the United States.The Academy of American Poets started the celebration in 1996.The goal was to help more Americans add poetry to their lives.
The academy chose April as National Poetry Month because of a line in a poem.T.S.Eliot called April “the cruelest month” in his poem “The Waste Land.” And many Americans think April is the cruelest month.They must pay their income taxes by April 15th.
National Poetry Month brings together publishers,booksellers,poetry groups,libraries,schools and poets around the country.They encourage people to write,read,and listen to poetry.In the southern state of Florida,the O,Miami Poetry Festival tries to bring a poem to every one of the 2.5 million people who live in the area.The group has dropped poems out of airplanes,sewn them into clothes,and put them on every bus in the city.
Poetry is very popular in the United States.America even has a chief poet,known as the Poet Laureate.Robert Pinsky was the Poet Laureate from 1997 until 2000.He started the Favorite Poem Project,to find out which poems Americans liked best.Thousands of Americans wrote to Mr.Pinsky about their favorite poems.He chose 200 poems by poets from the United States and from many other countries.
The poems are included in a book called “Americans’ Favorite Poems.” It was edited by Robert Pinsky and Maggie Dietz.We will read five of poems from the book by American poets.
