Today is the last day of Poemorama, Paper Poetry’s global celebration for National Poetry Month. And what a wonderful celebration of poetry it has been. ✨

At a guess, I would say I’ve read and written the word, Poemorama, over 600 times in the past month but it wasn’t until I read Megan Nicole Morgan’s very clever rhyming acrostic, Poemorama Tribute, that I noticed Poemorama has 9 letters — perfect for a nonet!

An acrostic nonet no less! 😊

Specifically, an acrostic nonet to express my personal gratitude to everyone who participated in Poemorama as a contributing writer or a reader of one or more of the 70+ submissions that now form the Poemorama anthology of poetry at Paper Poetry — you’ll find the list of contents here. 🙏 💕
