I am happy to be again supporting the vital work of the Center for New Americans the fun way by writing a quick draft of a poem a day through November and hopefully having you chip in a contribution and enjoy the word play. Please let me know at judbrown47@iCloud.com if you would like me to send you the results of my trys. I say "trys" because it is a rare day when a complete poem can be made. Some poems take years.
This year I am again resorting to “exphrasis,” which sounds like an unpleasant medical procedure but is actually a fancy word for translating one medium to another , in my case, picture to poem. I will send a photo of a master work of art along with my stab at it. You can then feel free to DIY.
Thank you for supporting this fund raiser for an agency that is helping to keep democracy alive!
