National Poetry Month is the largest literary celebration in the world that commemorates poetry and its importance in literacy and culture.

"But we grow old! Ah! when shall all men's good
Be each man's rule and universal Peace
Lie like a shaft of light across the land"

"The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I go to sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep"
— Robert Frost
