Description

April is National Poetry Month, so what better time to share some of my all time favorites collections perfect for beginners or anyone seeking some recommendations. Even more than fiction I believe poetry is a very personal thing. What I like, you may not, and what you like I may not, so take my recommendations and explore poetry and everything it has to offer so you can find what works best for you.
