| World Poetry Day |
World Poetry Day is celebrated on 21 March and was declared by UNESCO in 1999. Its purpose is to promote the reading, writing, publishing, and teaching of poetry throughout the world and, as the original UNESCO declaration says, to "give fresh recognition and impetus to national, regional and international poetry movements"

Poetry (ancient Greek:(ποιέω= Ι create) is an art form in which human language is used for its
aesthetic qualities in addition to/instead of, its national and semantic
content.
Poetry is a code you have to break.
Can you break codes?

A fellow jumped off a high wall,
And had a most terrible fall.
He went back to bed,
With a bump on his head,
That's why you don't jump off a wall.
