One Canvas, Two Perspectives Music flows through his veins out his hands and feet, no surprise his eyes reveal a young girl playing piano long hair cascading down her back thin arms under a light blue kimono tiny fingers plunk unseen ivories, he can almost taste the percussive melody as it swirls around her. For me, a different type of harmony escapes the composed canvas a symphony of colours and folds, my fingers itch to shear shapes feed thread through needle’s eye appliqué complimentary cut-outs in proper pleasing proportion, then sandwich the puffy batting between patchwork and backing. Come, crawl under my charming blue and beige masterpiece. Elaine Sorrentino Elaine Sorrentino hosts a monthly poetry circle at Duxbury Public Library in Massachusetts. She has been writing ekphrastic poetry for four years now, and was delighted when her fellow poets tried their hand at ekphrastic poetry this past April as part of a Painters & Poets exhibit in the Duxbury Art Complex Museum. They are hooked! In addition to The Ekphrastic Review, Elaine's poetry has been published in Glass: A Journal of Poetry, Sparks of Calliope, Gyroscope Review, and Etched Onyx Magazine.
