National Poetry Month!

I've read a lot of poems this month, and I've discovered some new favorites. I think my favorite poem is probably Silence, mostly because I spent so much time memorizing it, but I actually do like it. I was looking in the "Most Popular" section on poets.org and I found the most popular contemporary poet, Billy Collins. I read a few of his poems, some of my favorites were: Some Days, Introduction to Poetry, and Forgetfulness. I've also read a lot of Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, and Edgar Allan Poe. Poetry is definitely not my favorite thing to read, but I might continue reading poems then and again. It was fun to read a different poem every day via poem-a-day and creating my own poetry notebook, though.

ONLY ONE MORE MONTH OF PATH :'(

  1. One of my favorites by Emily Dickinson

    It's all I have to bring today –
    This, and my heart beside –
    This, and my heart, and all the fields –
    And all the meadows wide –
    Be sure you count – should I forget
    Some one the sum could tell –
    This, and my heart, and all the Bees
    Which in the Clover dwell.
