Poem Up at The Ekphrastic Review

Posted on March 9, 2019 by robert okaji

Read Ken Gierke’s double-ekphrastic piece inspired by a painting and a poem.

My ekphrastic poem, “Ageless,” is published today at The Ekphrastic Review. It is inspired by the acrylic on canvas painting “The Eternal Question,” by Mary Winifred Hood Schwaner, as well as the poem with which it appeared last year, “Saproxylic,” by Jeff Schwaner. Mary graciously allowed her painting to appear beside my poem.

Editor Lorette C. Luzajic continues to present a wide variety of art and poetry at The Ekphrastic Review, and I thank her for accepting this poem.

I enjoyed reading this. At our monthly meeting of the Tucson Poetry Society today (before I saw your post), someone mentioned The Ekphrastic Review!
