Ekphrastic Poetry: The Voice of Photography

I find pleasure writing poetry; I am easily lost in the cadence of verse. Like a fine ballet or an intense tango, poetry evokes emotion. I also possess a life-long passion for photography; the satisfaction of capturing an emotive moment in time is very rewarding. Both of these passions vie for my time and now both will share the creative stage. Ekphrastic poetry is the artistic outlet that allows photography to be embraced by the choreography of word and rhythm. Welcome to my cabaret!

Where Grown-Ups Go

I found the place where grown-ups go

When they need to run away

Coasters, ice cream and fried dough

I found the place where grown-ups go

When they tire of the corporate show

And need some time to play

I found the place where grown-ups go

When they need to run away

Susan, I love the image. The color of the sky is beautiful and the silhouette of the tracks and cars are wonderful. Your poem so reminds all of us adults that we do need to get away and have fun!
