50 Best Blogs to Follow for National Poetry Month



This week the site Online Colleges posted their "50 Best Blogs to Follow for National Poetry Month."   They break the blogs into 4 categories: Essential Reading, News and Commentary, Poets, and Poems.  Somehow, Issa managed to sneak into the last category.  

Wanted to share this with the faithful at the blog, as notice has already gone out via Facebook and Twitter. The list is interesting overall, so I thought all you lot might get a kick checking it out.

I'm sure many are worthy. I unfortunately can't follow all the blogs I follow now in a reasonable time.

Very cool, and well-chosen. How perfect is that Issa haiku?!
