Ekphrastic April, Day 1: "Monet's Dining Room at Giverny (Tea)"

Welcome to Day 1 of the 2021 edition of Ekphrastic April in celebration of National Poetry Month. Come back each day during April for works of art created by women, each one is accompanied by an original cherita inspired by the work. The poem may describe the picture, be an emotional reaction to it, relate to the creator of the art, or any of the various ways art can inspire.

Haiku Sticky and Happy Haiga Day! posts will resume in May.

by the calendar
winter is gone

spring is tarrying

let's take matters
into our own hands
and make sunshine
