Here is a sonnet, Corteo D’Amore, by award winning Canberra poet, Suzanne Edgar, that appeared in Panorama, Saturday, 10 Mar 2012, The Canberra Times.
The poem was written to accompany the picture in the National Gallery.
This sonnet is married to the picture.
It could not exist without it, yet the picture comes to life because of it.
Suzanne Edgar’s book The Painted Lady is available @
the bookshop of the National Library of Aust and the
Paperchain Bookstore 34 Franklin St Manuka ACT.
A fine sonnet, indeed. You might be interested in my sonnets. I wrote a sonnet every day for a year in 2005, just been around to publishing them in December. Volumes One and Two are out, Volume Three getting ready to press soon.
Fantastic Edward Brown. I’ll follow up your sonnet wallow. Poempig
