 Day 86 of The 100 Day Poetry Project

I actually wrote this poem yesterday but did not have time to type it up and sent it out. This is an ekphrastic poem that I wrote about a Mary Cassett painting titled Child in a Straw Hat. I included the painting for your reference.

I don't feel like I'm that good at writing in the ekphrastic style but the important thing is that I tried. So important to try and try again, until you get it right.

Shout out to poet Donna Isaac whose prompt inspired this poem.
