There's A Poem in This Place

It's National Poetry Month and we are celebrating in the Mepham High School Library! On Monday, April 11th join us after school in the library to make your own Library Card Poem. Don't know what that means? Neither do we. It can be anything you want it to be. We will supply old-fashioned library cards and writing implements (pen, pencil, marker, crayon, colored pencil, etc.) and you write down your poem. When you are finished, you can take it with you or we can display it in the library. Perhaps you will write a sonnet or a haiku. It's entirely up to you! 

About National Poetry Month:

Launched by the Academy of American Poets in April 1996, National Poetry Month reminds the public that poets have an integral role to play in our culture and that poetry matters. Over the years, it has become the largest literary celebration in the world, with tens of millions of readers, students, K–12 teachers, librarians, booksellers, literary events curators, publishers, families, and—of course—poets, marking poetry's important place in our lives.
