It's National Poetry Month! Each April we celebrate poets and their craft. With this Poetry Scramble Wall, we celebrate and showcase the work of Ada Limón, the current U.S. National Poet Laureate. Our Poetry Scramble Wall contains the words of Limón's poem, "The Conditional". We have cut the words and punctuation apart and left them on our Scramble Wall in the library, you do the rest! Move the words around to make your own poem, story, sentence, title, or whatever you can think of! When you have finished your scrambled creation, you can snap a pic and send it to us by using the QR code next to the Scramble Wall. We will then display the poems we receive.Happy Scrambling!
