Pink & Lace

Pink & Lace 8x10  oil   by   Dee Lessard

I have been wanting to do a painting with ballet slippers for a while now. The Gallery I am in has a theme show a couple of times a year. We have one starting on Thursday night called "Poetry & Art". Because I was determined to do this painting I went on a search for a poem to match it. Unfortunately, I was not happy with my results. So, I was telling a friend of mine (who happens to write poetry) and she came up with this beautiful poem!

Please join us at East Colony Fine Art for this show to see more theme pieces! 55 So Commercial St, Manchester, NH from 5:00-8:00. Join us for wine & Hors d'oeuvres: Open and free to everyone!

CLARA'S FEET

 

by Phyllis Gagnon

 

 

In her chair

She gently rocks,

Wrinkled feet

In fuzzy socks

 

Back and forth

She glides away...

Restless feet

Begin to sway

 

In transport

Tchaikovsky flows,

Tired feet

Are on their toes

 

Then, caressed

In time's embrace,

Clara's feet

Wear pink and lace.
