June 9, 2013, Regular Meeting of Haiku San Diego

In a regularly scheduled meeting on June 9, 2013, members of Haiku San Diego met to explore the concepts and aesthetics of wabi, sabi, and wabi-sabi during an interactive workshop.  Attendees: Anita Guenin, Seretta Martin, Elizabeth Yahn Williams, Robert Lundy, Stevie Strang, Dave Strang, Carol Judkins, and Naia.

Naia brought objects and photographs, and everyone spent time considering each item. We explored the kinds of inner responses we experienced and then wrote and shared haiku. As is customary during our monthly meetings, attendees participated in an anonymous haiku workshop. 

We were so happy to finally greet in person Carol Judkins, who joined our meeting for the first time.(Photos courtesy of Stevie Strang. Thank you, Stevie!)

Haiku San Diego meets regularly on the second Sunday of each month, 12:30p-2:30p at Open Door Books in the Pacific Beach area of San Diego. If you're a haiku poet or are interested in haiku and live near or are planning to visit the San Diego area, we'd love to have you join us!
