Dear Friend,


Some of the greatest joys in life can be found in quiet morning moments. Recently, Poem-a-Day subscriber Elizabeth shared with us how much she values beginning her day, coffee in hand, opening the poem we’ve emailed before reading any of her other, many messages.

 

Reading a poem is an opportunity to press pause for a few minutes, and to reflect on another’s experience and creativity, and on the power and possibility of language. Engaging with poetry everyday has become a small pleasure and important practice for more than 90,000 subscribers like you.

 

Your support makes Poem-a-Day possible, and keeps it free of charge. Please make a special contribution toward this program in the year ahead.

 

There’s little more than one week left in National Poetry Month. We are less than $5,000 away from our $25,000 goal. We need your help to make it across the finish line—please donate today.

 

Thank you for helping to make that possible, and for starting your day with Poem-a-Day.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Jennifer Benka
Executive Director
Academy of American Poets
