Poem In Your Pocket Day

Monday, April 7th
 

Share a poem with everyone you meet on Poem in Your Pocket Day. As part of New York City's celebration of April’s National Poetry Month, residents have participated in Poem in Your Pocket Day since 2002. Now this movement has gone national! Select a poem or compose one and carry it with you in your pocket all day, sharing the poem and the fun of National Poetry Month wherever you go.  On Monday, April 7th, AEEC will be celebrating Poem in Your Pocket Day.  Students are encouraged to carry a poem with them and share it with others throughout the day on Monday.
