Greetings to poetry lovers and book lovers!
I received more than 20 poetry books last month of March. I wonder how am I going to finish reviewing these 20 poetry books by April 2005.
April is National Poetry Month in US. The Pulitzer Prize 2005 - Poetry went to Ted Kooser for his book of poems Delights and Shadows. He received $10,000. Details at www.pulitzer.org
In this Spring -April 2005 issue, the editor gives a poem review to seven poems.
.
