April 27th forum announcement

Dear Poetry Aficionados,

Poetry & Poets in Rags blog


This coming Friday is the last day of Planetary Poetry Month. I've been waiting for today, so that I could share with you the project that the Globe and Mail took on for the occasion, and which Great Regular Judith Fitzgerald wrote about on April 1. Their books blog, In Other Words, has been guest edited all April by poet rob mclennan, who has, as of today, brought us 17 articles in which one poet writes about another, including featured poems. Our headliner contains links to each of those items.

That's where News at Eleven begins. From there, we travel all over the world and back in time, ending at the Back Page, in an article that travels through Vermont, and features the poetry of Robert Frost. Also in poetry news, featured in each of our sections is poetry by, poetry in tribute to, and articles about Peter Porter, who has died.

There is much more to read, so I'll let you get to it. Thanks for clicking in.

Yours,
Rus
