World Poetry Day on March 21st serves as a reminder of the magnitude that reading and writing poetry has enriched and inspired the way we live our lives. Ever since humans have been recording history, poetry has challenged the norm with new ways of thinking through allegory and complex emotion. Words have always been the binding source between people and allows us to see life from a new perspective.
Poetry is the artistic mastery of this phenomena, by conveying emotions within us and creating the ability to influence others. It’s our poetic nature that allows words to be the bridge to our feelings.
The United Nations Educational Scientific And Cultural Organization (UNESCO) declared World Poetry Day to be observed annually on March 21. This declaration took place in 1999 in Paris, France during UNESCO’s 30th Session.
