So plan to do something. Write a poem! Buy or read a poetry book! Support a poet!
Listen to a CD of poems! Look up some poetry on the web! Go to a poetry reading! Go to an open mike! Take a poetry tour or survey of your town or community! Go buy your town or community poet and drink and have him/her do a poem. Organize or perform a poetry reading, even if it's nobody but you and some friends around a table at McDonald's!

Put in some poetry work!

Roses are red
but, what if instead,
their color also meant more books were read.
Violets are blue, but this might be true
because they've never learned anything new.
Sugar is sweet
but wouldn't it be neat if it broaden its
taste to make literacy a treat.
And what words would best describe our own Chris Hayden?
Imagination in the flesh, in whose soul poems are made in!

You are a poet
