In honor of National Poetry Month, which is April, I wanted to organize a poem-a-day challenge! It would be a good opportunity for us to give poets more recognition as well as sharing our favorite poems with each other!
Guidelines!
There is a singular slot for each day in April. Each person can claim up to 5 slots. If there are still empty slots after March 31st, you can claim more. Please consult the calendar I have below before claiming a spot. I will try my best to keep it updated.
Please have your poems no more than 30 lines. However, if the lines are very short, you can go past the limit. Use your judgement here.
Please give the poem’s title and author in your post. A few sentences about why you like and why it is meaningful to you would also be nice!
Be mindful of your audience. If your poem could make people feel uncomfortable, please put a warning before the poem.
If there is a curse word in your poem, please cover it with * or -.
You can use your own poems! However, be careful not to overshare. As my poems are personal to me, I won’t be sharing any of mine.
While we do love older classical poets, remember that there are more modern poets out there!
