The end of April means that National Poetry Month is now behind us. It was a month of
great poetry on Scribd. Amongst the featured works this month were poems from
former US Poet Laureates, living legends, and interviews with Pulitzer Prize winning
poets.

139 poems were submitted!

Thank you, everyone, for your submissions. It’s so wonderful to be a part of the warm,
supportive and creative group that is the Scribd Community!
