I started doing poetry postcards when I ran Poets Corner @ Pages Cafe as a giveaway on each table. I figured if people were kind enough to sit and listen, they deserved a keepsake.
I’m still in the habit and find them useful as giveaways at readings and book events. I get them printed – often for free, when VISTA PRINT do ‘specials’.
This one has the first (the very first) oil painting I ever did, on it. My dad gave me a set of oils for my 12th birthday and a small tester board.
I haven’t done more than a handful since but this first attempt at oils, was always my favorite.
The poem was written for my returned love; every time he turns to carry on with his everyday… I miss him this much.
