April Is Poetry Month

 To celebrate National Poetry Month, I am doing two different things on my blog during the month of April. One, I will be re-posting an original poem each week, choosing some from my Poetry Page (see tab at the upper banner of this blog). Two, I will sharing some posts from Poetry of Perception from HarvardX Neuroscience which combines spoken word poetry with animated graphics. I discovered the series online, and thought it would be a good thing to share during National Poetry Month.
