August 21 is celebrated Poet’s Day (Poet’s Day).

How did the idea of ​​celebrating the Poet’s Day come about?

The holiday was founded in 1994 by William Sighart, a British philanthropist, entrepreneur and publisher. On this day, the ceremony of awarding poets takes place. Such awards are presented once a year.

William explained the establishment of the holiday by the fact that there are many good but unrecognized poets. And he wants everyone to know these talented people, so that they are not ashamed to read their works out loud. So that their poems are read by people on their way to work, resting, studying, traveling in public transport. By celebrating, he encourages poets to demonstrate their abilities.

Do you have your own collection of poems?

Poet’s Day is dedicated to the centuries-old history of poetry and people involved in this beautiful form of creativity. On this day, everyone who tried to write poems at least once can try again on the poetic terrain. The best way to celebrate is to collect all your poems and submit them to any amateur publishing house. Maybe years later you will be recognized and considered a great poet.
