Some Happy News

[Rona Maynard]

A new term to me. Although I’m not a poet, I’m an art yenta who matches poems with paintings and then writes about the two in conversation. This exercise inspires me to think more deeply about both.

Thanks so much for reading. It's so interesting how different people find different points of entry into a poem, and how that shapes a response.

Cheers to publishing! And that poem is hilarious - thanks for the chuckle and teaching me a new word today 😂

[Tara Connor]

Congrats, Tara! That's very exciting! Your poem gave me a good laugh, which I adore in poetry. I'll never again look at this painting without smiling.

And I'd never heard of ekphrastic poetry before — so cool! Thank you for the introduction.

[Tara Connor]

Thanks, Adam! I, too, am a fan of poems with a sense of humor. I'm delighted you got a laugh out of mine. Thanks so much for reading.
