April is World Poetry Month

April is World Poetry Month:
Poets from Around the World Unite on Blog Talk Radio


Poets around the world call for a World Poetry Month. Fifteen poets from such places as Saint Paul, Minnesota; Rye, England; and South Africa, Johannesburg will unite and discuss the need for a World Poetry Month. Fifteen talented poets from the Gaia.com E-community - Empowered by Poetry - will be interviewed on April 13th and 20th from 8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. EST (Eastern Standard Time). Ella Curry of EDC Creations, John D. Evans, Dominant Muse of the Gaia.com E-community and founder of The Evans Poetry Collection, and select poets from around the world will unite and call for a World Poetry Month designation for the month of April.

The poets will engage in educational, inspiring, and meaningful discussions on poetry and they will explain how poetry empowers. All visitors can chat live in the chat-room during the show live at: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Black-Author-Network . Let's make this epic event an exciting and unforgettable one.

“When we take a stand for poetry, we take a stand for beauty. When we take a stand for beauty, we take a stand for peace. Celebrate World Poetry Month and get one step closer to World Peace. We are prepared to use poetry as a vehicle for uniting the people of this world and we are not waiting on approval or permission,” says John D. Evans, Empowered by Poetry group leader.

The theme for the show is a statement of declaration: April is World Poetry Month - A Discussion of Poetry with Poets from Around the World.

  1. John this event does, indeed, look legendary. Thank you for promoting the power and beauty that is poetry. Minnesota is a hotbed of poetic activity, and I will spread the word of your event. Suggested topic: Poet Laureates: from state to country. Keep the ink flowing.
