April: National Poetry Month

April is National Poetry Month and Poets.org has 30 ways to celebrate!

Write a poem on your sidewalk with chalk, .listen to an audio poem during your commute or go to a poetry reading.

One of the most intriguing suggestions is to write a favorite poem on a piece of paper, carry it on your pocket and share it with your friends.

Poetry is accessible to everyone.  Long or short, rhyming or free verse, it is something that can be enjoyed and treasured like a well brewed cup of tea.

"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
