"Learn about the pine, from the pine." This advice about writing haiku from Haiku Master Matsuo Basho (1644-1694) is accurate today. We will learn about Basho: his life, times, and influence as the originator of this poetry form. Basho reveals the haiku moment: the direct, immediate experience of the natural world in three short lines. After reading many of Basho's haiku, we will try writing haiku using easy and fun writing prompts. Soon, you will be seeing haiku moments everywhere. Participants will receive a small field notebook and the latest book by the instructor, The Length of One Breath: Haiku Now. All are invited to this fun, supportive course. Instructor: Jeanne Martin


This class will meet in-person at CCAE. Please view our In-Person Class Guidelines prior to enrolling.
