We can all do that on World Poetry Day, on March 21. The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) founded this day in 1999. As I share my poem, “Poems Stand Free,” I invite you to celebrate the power of poetry with us:  “Long after thrones have splintered,and crowns rust in forgotten vaults,I carry the poem—a threadimprinted on the fabric of our shared soul.”-A.C. Blake, from “Poems Stand Free”
