National Poetry Month

I have decided that April is my favorite month. Why? Because it's
NATIONAL POETRY MONTH!!!!!!!! Why have I not known this before?
Who has been keeping this a secret from me? Why do fools fall in love?

Here is my favorite poem as of this moment.

Everyone Sang
Siegfried Sassoon

Everyone suddenly burst out singing;
And I was filled with such delight
As prisoned birds must find in freedom,
Winging wildly across the white
Orchards and dark-green fields; on- on- and out of sight.

Everyone's voice was suddenly lifted;
And beauty came like the setting sun:
My heart was shaken with tears; and horror
Drifted away...O, but Everyone
Was a bird; and the song was wordless; the singing
will never be done.
