Rhythmic pose arcs lifting elegant ambience Graceful dance enshrines artful renascence Visceral posture invites emotional response Festive celebration of aesthetic renaissance. Attired in red and blue of simple elegance Glorious style augments swirling excellence Left arm risen high points gracious eminence Finger tips lift vivid attire in quiet eloquence. Golden bangles adorn wrists flirting in stare A lone yellow flower crowns her silky hair Folded right arm obstructs in a defiant dare Index finger hides grief, eyes closed in prayer. Head turned right, arched with sculpted flair Tense neck muscles manifest muted despair Open fingers gesture a stealth grievous flare Air of intellectual grandeur opulently glares. Ponder why the painter didn't show her eyes Discover invisible pain vibrant colors disguise Beneath the splendor lies a hidden surprise Cultural dance-music echoes her silent cries. September 22, 2017 Placed 1st:Poems that paint a picture Painter: Anna Razumovskaya Sponsor: Silent One HM: Strand choice U contest by Brian Strand

This is an excellent Ekphrasis. The dance and the girl's dancing postures are beautifully presented.
