#PoetryDayIRL 2019 kicks off on Thursday 2 May. To celebrate we've gathered some of our favourite poets, writers, artists, singers and friends and asked them to read a poem that means something special to them.

We'll be rolling those out over the next week so keep your eyes peeled! In the meantime here's a little taster of what to expect with Dara Ó Briain, Hozier, Paula Meehan, Loah, Nicola Sturgeon, David Keenan, Marie Heaney and Evanna Lynch.

Everyone is invited to join in next Thursday May 2nd for Poetry Day Ireland - read a poem, or write your own, check out a local poetry event from over one hundred happening nationwide, or just share details of your poetry-filled day online!
