Below, I have written a poem based on a photograph, as an example of Ekphrasis.
My photograph is of the beautiful East Lake in Danbury, Connecticut, at sunset, just before dusk.
I took this photo of East Lake in Danbury, Connecticut.
Dusk
Indigo pond
reflects
a hopeful, graying sky
shades of peach and blue
intermingle
with soft, fleecy clouds
framing the Peace
that harkens my heart
dreaming
of possibilities
Dusk.
