Best Ecphrasis Poems
La Campanelle* by Franz Liszt
paganini with many a twist
Giacomo Balla a futurist
with 'moving' portraits did persist
Best known or ' Dog on a leash'*
movement,flight& speed never cease
Edvard Munch's work often neurotic
His 'Madonna'* is much more specific
A typical recurring theme
the artist's extrovert dream
Munch Red & White*
a perfect pictorial delight
An allegory of types of love some say
look&make of what you may
The 'Voice-Summer night'*
Edvard Munch first love at sight
Milly ever on his mind
a dalliance of the romantic kind
Contemplation by George de Feure*
full of appeal desire & allure
With similar atractive poster
symbolized the 'Nouveau roller-coaster
Charles Maurin with talent to spare
an etching revolutionaire
His composition - allegorique*
best displays an enigmatic technique
Romantically symbolic for sure
Munch's metaphor takes the floor
here in the Dance of Life*
so many are especially rife
Ten Foot flowers* by Andy Warhol
his 'still life period ' on a roll
Paul Gaugin simplicitiste
also an art theorist
He suggests painting from memory
of 'plein air' was uncomplimentary
pots fruit eggs& curtains * by Klee
'nature mort' in fee fantasy
Scumann's creative piano technique*
Clara ever so romantique
American artist Walter Crane
with 'White Horses'* once found fame
Seeing equine surfing the wave
action allegory' he oft did crave
Chopin noctune opus 2*
lets his expertise shine through
An Einaudi 'Le Onde'*
Ludovico waves his introspective wand
