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.
