National Poetry Month

The month is almost over and I haven't officially marked the occasion though I do love the form and I've read a ton of brilliant poems posted by more ambitious social media denizens than me. Still, I feel I should do something before it's over and rather than try to impress you with some obscure poet from the vast breadth of my poetry knowledge, here's the source of my earliest exposure to poetry readings.



It's quite possible that Bullwinkle is responsible for instilling a love of poetry in me at such an early age. Also, too, still my favorite cartoon series of all time.
