Today is poetry day in Belgium, and in schools we truly celebrate it. Poems are hung all around the place. This year's theme is 'freedom'.
I'm a language teacher, so any form of literature is interesting to me, though I have to say that I prefer prose over poetry.
Do you like reading poems? Is there a poetry day in your country? Tell me all about it!

National Poetry Day is the first day in October in the US. I have written poetry for many years and since every state has a Poetry Association, entered some in our association contests. Some did well.
Since retirement, I have read and written lots of poetry and am submitting for publication. I was lucky to have five published recently in an online journal.

I do like poetry. But I don't like writing poetry.
