April is National Poetry Month and students across Maine are immersing themselves in poetry from a variety of authors.
One of them is a new anthology of poems called "A New Land." It's a collection of 30 poems written by student graduates of The Telling Room, a Portland-based literary arts education nonprofit.
"'A New Land' is our second major anthology that we’ve done," Nick Whiston, program director of The Telling Room, said. "We have poems in there by students who wrote and published their own book of poetry.”
