Haiku, a style of ancient Japanese poetry, is a spiritual practice of paying attention to small things and honoring an insight into the sacredness of everyday life. Participants will practice writing haiku, a sound structure of three lines (5-7-5 syllable count), and then broaden it to see how a simple experience awakens the heart to a broader truth. This workshop will be led by Elaine K Olson.
