The Syracuse Poster Project Opening

The poster made from my haiku and Chloe Tran's art

As I mentioned in a prior story (and in several others), one of my haiku was chosen to to be made into a large poster by the Syracuse Poster Project.  15 posters were made from 626 submissions.  They are arranged at the website in alphabetical order, so mine is the second to the last.

I was, unfortunately, unable to attend because I was sick.  My daughter, Erin, went in my place (THANK YOU, ERIN!) to read my poem and receive my posters.  This is the third poster that was made from one of my poems.

Here are a few pictures from the event that I missed, graciously sent by my daughter, Erin. The first image shows the poster and also Erin's hand pointing to my picture on the blurb about the poet and the artist.

I was sad to miss the event because I was unable to travel.  I'm still sick and hoping to heal.
