 n									What is an ekphrastic poem?								\n				\n				\n				\n									
 An ekphrastic poem is written in response to an artwork. These poems take 
 an existing piece of visual art\, and uses written words to describe and e
 xpand on the theme of that work of art. The poem should not simply describ
 e the artwork\; it should express how the art enlightens\, puzzles\, moves
 \, inspires you\, etc.  Many of these poems explore hidden meanings or an
  underlying story.
