Today, 7th October is National Poetry Day.
If you’re a lover of poetry, why nit take some time out and enjoy the work by some of your favourite poets?
If you’re lucky enough to be up in London today, you can pop over to the Southbank and enjoy live poetry from the likes of Daljit Nagra, Simon Armitage and Lemn Sissay.
If you’re on the Island, why not sit back for three minutes and enjoy this fantastic short film of Philip Gross’ Room Inside.
Beautiful poetry, beautifully shot.
Room Inside from Broadway Nottingham on Vimeo.
