Poetry is designed to be heard! What can seem daunting and unclear when read on a page, or just still, comes to life with the rhythm and cadence of the human voice.
Listen to poetry that is thought-provoking, exciting, meditative, and cathartic from a diverse range of sonorous voices on the National Poetry Library audio collection site.
The Guardian has hosted a selection of environmental poetry read by celebrities.
Also take a look at the Poetry Society audio collections, another wonderful resource!
Don't forget that some of the greatest English literary figures, including poets, were Irish. Poetry Ireland provides an excellent selection of audio recordings of Irish Poets, North and South, reading their works in both English and some in Irish (Gaeilge).
A sister organisation in the USA The Poetry Foundation also provides a fantastic collection of audio poetry.
Also, why not check out this fantastic collection of guides, podcasts, and information from The Poetry Society!
