National Poetry Month

If you've recently found yourself waxing poetic about the spring flowers or April showers, you're in good company. April is National Poetry Month, so people across the country are exploring rhyme, meter, and the construction of poems. A lot of those people are still in school, so the National Endowment for the Humanities offers this site with resources about poetry tailored to the Common Core State Standards:

To the best of my knowledge, very few people have actually waxed poetic about the Common Core Standards themselves.
