A wonderful collection of poetry for young readers. Ages 6+.

The companion volumes to this new collection — Poem a Day: Volume 1 and Poem a Day: Volume 2 — have together sold nearly a hundred thousand copies. They are a word-of-mouth sensation among those who want poetry to be a greater presence in their lives, and perennial gift-giving favorites. Like its predecessors, Poem a Day: Volume 3 offers a verse for each day of the year (including February 29) along with brief, often amusing, always interesting anecdotes about the poets and their poems. The original Poem a Day was the brainchild of Englishman Nicholas Albery, a colorful and charismatic figure whose interests ranged from social inventions to a greener environment. He had already commenced work on this volume when he died tragically in a car crash. A foundation was created in his memory, and his friends and colleagues at the Nicholas Albery Foundation completed the work.

A Poem A Day is a mixture of poems by Dom The Poet. This collection features poetry about sexuality, love, heartbreak, change, along with other topics. It is to provide the reader with at least one poem to read each day of the year. It doesn't follow a specific storyline or theme but instead allows you to form your stories and interpretations throughout each poem portrayed. Part 1 provides 120 poems, representing 1/3 of 2021 (January through to April). Most of the poems are written in English, however, a few are written in the writer's native tongue, patios, otherwise known as Jamaican creole. They say an apple a day will keep the doctor away, I guess a poem a day will keep you from going insane. Enter the depths of my mind and soul with caution, beware of the puns and metaphors that will attack and watch out for the alliterations and similes that may crawl underneath your feet. Prepare to read between what may seem to be the simplest of lines as each word that has been poured into each poem is a masterpiece on its own. Welcome to A Poem A Day.
