NationalPoetryMonth — Poetry & Prose (FEED)

For more than two decades, April has been designated in Canada as National Poetry Month. At Canthius, poetry is not a 30-day affair, but rather a way of life. It is a way of understanding our world and our place in it. It is a vehicle through which we drive through memories, instances, moments and futures. With musical language, sharp imagery, and vulnerability, we use poetry to open not only ourselves a little further, but our readers as well.
