Celebrate Earth Day & National Poetry Month with Nature Poetry!

April is National Poetry Month, and with Earth Day approaching on April 22^nd, our library is excited to celebrate both events with a special pop-up display featuring a collection of nature poems.

This curated selection includes works from renowned poets who have captured the essence of the natural world in their verses. From the serene landscapes of Robert Frost to the vivid imagery of Mary Oliver, these poems offer a moment of reflection and appreciation for the environment. Whether you're a long-time poetry enthusiast or new to the genre, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Now showing, in the Library’s lobby, through Saturday April 26.
