Haiku Workshop

Wakeman Town Farm

Come join Westport Poet Laureate for a Haiku Poetry Workshop Hosted By Wakeman Town Farm!

Come join Westport Poet Laureate for a Haiku Poetry Workshop: Haiku is a poetic form consisting of 17 syllables arranged in three lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively. It is the perfect way to learn to write concisely. Diane Lowman will discuss the origins of this beautiful genre and participants will then write and share their own beautiful creations. We will use the environs of the Farm for our inspiration. About DianeDiane&#x27;s essays have appeared in many publications, including O, The Oprah Magazine; Brain, Child; Brevity Blog; and When Women Waken. She writes a weekly column called Everything’s an Essay. In addition to essays, she has written a memoir called Nothing But Blue, which was published in November 2018. Shortly thereafter, she received her M.A. in Shakespeare Studies from the University of Birmingham’s Shakespeare Institute. She has explored other forms of literary expression in more than 2,000 haiku and essays analyzing each of Shakespeare&#x27;s 37 plays. In July 2019, she was named Westport, CT’s first Poet Laureate.
