A lot of people will be waxing poetic tomorrow...

There’s a good chance you’ll stumble across some poetry on Facebook or Twitter tomorrow...

It’s National Poem in Your Pocket Day and poets are encouraging us to share our favorites online or in person. The New York City Departments of Cultural Affairs started Poem in Your Pocket Day in 2002 and the Academy of American Poets took the initiative national in 2008, with annual events in parks, libraries, schools, workplaces and bookstores. 

If you’ve got a favorite poem, go ahead and tweet it using the hashtag #pocketpoem. If you’d like to wax poetic but are poetically challenged, you can search by topic or author at poets.org.
