national poetry day (Remove filter)
NPD
If this is a day
On a page or stage
That asks you to say...
Something.
With rhyme or not
Keeping time or
Stopping to make your meaning clearer
Bringing the distant nearer
Unpacking the treasured memories
Buried oh so slightly to the left in your chest
Explaining why someone pushes all your buttons
And how each and every button feels to be depressed
And doing all...
