About

Beautiful%20Portrait_edited.jpg

My name is Maggie Smart, I am a 70 year old poetry lover and have Parkinson's Disease. Having trawled the miry depths of this condition, I have netted  some pure gold nuggets of humor that translate perfectly into comic verse. Within the next few weeks, I shall be sharing them with you.

As well as poems that make you laugh, I can also offer you poems that will bring a tear to your eye. As you make your way through my personal scribblings and poetic ramblings, you will encounter realms of laughter, grief, admiration, disdain, compassion and indifference.

​

By the way, the stunning portrait above is a remarkable likeness of me, in the days when I was young and beautiful.  It was executed over 39 years ago by the father of my current artist in residence, Chloe Smart, whose works are showcased on this site. 

​

It is probably worth a fortune.

Enjoy your visit and please come again soon.
