National Poetry Day

National Poetry Day is a campaign to promote and celebrate poetry, of all kinds and in all sorts of places.

For one day each year the enthusiasm, passion and skill of poetry readers and writers is channelled into a national celebration. There is a different theme each year. Past themes include Britain, Food, and Identity; this year the topic is DREAMS, with an opportunity to explore the legendary lyrics of Bob Dylan.

I consider myself a poet first and a musician second.
I live like a poet and I'll die like a poet.
Bob Dylan
