The Horizon
So long have we walked along sands of time, we have become a marker for others on the way. "Avoid the knothole, follow us. We are immersed in each other, happily." Joan Leotta This was written as part of the surprise ekphrastic challenge on Rene Magritte. Joan Leotta has been playing with words on page and stage since childhood in Pittsburgh. She is a writer and story performer. Her Legacy of Honor series feature strong Italian-American women.
