Hello FPGeeks,
I was just browsing the news and I read that 21 March is World Poetry Day.

So if anyone is interested, check your favorite poets and write on!
My favorite Poet is the Portuguese Fernando Pessoa, and "Tobacco Shop" (http://www.tabacaria.com.pt/portuguese/F_Pessoa/Tabacaria/Tabacaria.htm) is probably one of my favorite poems. A depressive ode to portuguese spleen, one could say. I also love "Lisbon Revisited" (http://nescritas.com/tributefpessoa/fpessoawork/1981/03/).
I'm not a bit reader of poetry, but I like some Walt Whitman and I really lived the love story between the Browning couple (ie Elisabeth and Robert Browning) and their long courtship and letter exchange. What about you?
