Poetry Project

Hi everyone: Here is a link to the library's media center.  If you scroll down to the literature section, you'll find volumes of the Poetry for Students series that may help you track down some poems for your anthology.

Also, when it is time to post your proposed theme for the poetry project (Wednesday), you can just post it as a comment to this post rather than using a piece of paper.  Thanks.
