World Poetry Day 2020
Today is World Poetry Day and I suspect there is a lot of disappointment around at the cancellation of readings, workshops etc.
Fortunately poetry is something that can be enjoyed as much alone as in social gatherings. Reading a favourite poet, or perhaps a newly bought book, is almost social: reader and poet together.
I think the current crisis will leave several kinds of mark on history, and one of those will be poems.
