THE PERFECT PLACE FOR POETRY, PARODY, PLEASANTRY AND PROSE
About

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.
Maggie
