Hi Lisa! I wanted to thank you for using my poem “On the Occasion of 50 Years of Poems” as an “inspiration” for your latest Zingara prompt! Fun fact: “On the Occasion…” eventually became “Elegy” and was the final/anchor poem in my first chapbook, Clerk of the Dead. I very much appreciate the opportunity you gave this little poem to be introduced to the world for the first time. It has a lasting place in my book because of your kindness in accepting it. All the best to you for continued success with your new Zingara projects! Warm regards, Alan Author of Clerk of the Dead available athttp://www.mainstreetrag.com https://AlanPerryPoetry.com

I deeply appreciate your sharing this and learning of your poem’s continued evolution. Congratulations on the collection!
You’ve introduced me to a lot of new poets this month. It’s good to read their words as I struggle to put down what I feel. I will miss your daily poetry prompts /posts but hope you keep blogging. You helped me get scribbling in a notebook again. All good. So many times I have a photograph that goes along with your prompt- an apple, an attic, an ending. Kudos for your Zingara Poetry project.
