Ekphrasis on, The Spinners
(Las Hilanderas) artist, Diego Velazquez
colors, fabric missing painter's glaze
spun within moonbeam's glow
threads entangled in beautiful gaze
majestic, with heart-sought truth in tow
by mortal flesh and heart-sights thus sewn
born- sky, water and land
expressions, vanity's undertones
imagination, from spinning hands
from earth, cascading heavenly clouds
windows - life's wondrous stage
Turin, mystery and famous shroud
digital world, techno all the rage
wondrous explosion, breathtaking scenes
hope, mankind's fleeing race
dark's blight, Gods births, depths obscene
humanity searching - divine grace
spirals of color, artistic flair
three spinners- flowing skies
imagination, beyond compare
artists, weavers and spirited eyes.

Ekphrasis on, The Spinners,
Artist- Diego Velazquez
This creation, inspired by my having read JCB Brul's poem,
"Ekphrasis on House of Parliament At Sunset"- of Claude Monet's
famed painting series , 1899--1901….

Note:
This is the first of the three poems on my new blog.
Again giving thanks to the very fine author of that
inspirational poem- , JCB Brul...
