Challenge
April 28th is National Poetry Reading Day
The object is to record a poem by a favorite poet you have. This could be Maya Angelou, Edgar Allen Poe, E.E. Cummings, Walt Whitman, William Shakespeare, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Robert Frost, Mark Twain, Emily Dickinson, and T.S. Eliot to mention a few, or one of your own favorite poets. Use this link to record the poem and underneath it, have the poem in its entirety. https://voicespice.com/
If you have another outlet to record and post here that is fine. Make sure you tag me in the comment box as: @Danceinsilence. The winner will receive The Best Spoken Word Poem Award. And for the first time, I will also have 2 Honorable Mention certificates to hand out (well, email that is). To see how your set up should look like, I will start this off so check out my post. It does not have to look exactly like mine though.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost
https://voicespice.com/Player.aspx?c=p&h=107F36E4&j=2668DA
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
