Free Poem: every day, for 30 days!

Dear Poetry Lover,

Nine years ago we began a Knopf tradition. To celebrate National Poetry Month,we sent a poem a day by e-mail for 30 days to anyone who asked to receive them. Now, with over 25,000 subscribers, we are proud to continue with a whole new series of daily poems. Each day during the month of April you will receive a poem from some of the best poets in the world including Mark Strand, Sharon Olds, and Laurie Sheck, as well as classics from Langston Hughes, Robert Burns and more. This year, we’ll also be featuring audio clips from The Knopf National Poetry Month Collection, special printable broadsides, signed books and more.

If you know of someone who might like to join the poem-a-day party, they may
