    Liked this as an idea for a library based school poetry day - Poem in Your Pocket Day to share with others throughout the day after researching a poem in the library. A previous site referred to a new book 'Firefly July and Other Very Short Poems' by Paul B Janeczko (Candlewick) coming out soon.
