April is National Poetry Month, when The Cuyahoga County Public Library's weblog "Read + Write" features a poem a day by a Northeast Ohio poet, along with a writing prompt, the poet's bio and a comments section for readers. You can see the 2024 edition here .

The 2025 edition is our twelfth year featuring another all-new exciting lineup of poets who have never appeared on the blog before. Among them this year are two new NEA recipients, a poet whose poetry has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, a few who have moved away but still call Northeast Ohio their home, retirees and poets working-- teachers, parents, librarians, artists, arts administrators, social workers.
