Waterford Public Library: Haiku And Japanese Micro Poetry For Adults

Press release from the Waterford Public Library:

April 18, 2022

Join poet Jennifer Y. Montgomery on a journey through the history of haiku and other forms of Japanese micro poetry. From frogs to zen meditation to clandestine feudal love letters. She’ll then guide us through the basics of haiku writing. It’s much more than just counting lines and syllables; each haiku presents a season and a single moment in nature. Think about your favorite season and come prepared to write your own haiku. You will need paper and pen/pencil.

Click here to register in advance. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

Jennifer Montgomery is a writer, artist, storyteller, attorney, and pie baker who lives in Connecticut with her daughter.

Thank you for supporting the Waterford Public Library!
