We all have a poem with our name on it—not a poem that we've written, but a poem that seems addressed to us with unique immediacy, as if the poet had been thinking of us when he or she wrote the poem.
When we find such a poem, the connection is intimate, and we keep the poem close at hand. Not every poem speaks to us; not every poet has something to say that resonates within us. Events as proximate and transformative as this don’t happen all the time. The Nearest Poem Anthology project is aimed at creating a testimony to the immediacy of poetry and its closeness to everyday life. Here's what the nearest poem anthology contains: Poetry Daily, a new poem every day. Poetry Foundation.
Poetry Archive. Heart Maps and Writing.
