Honored to attend a dedication of the mural pieces for the City of Bothell’s Triangle Junction art installation and reconnect with the other artists, city officials and art commission. And… I had a chance to speak about my piece and its relationship to the theme of intersection. #haiku #haiga

My first Seabeck was three years ago. I’d never been to a writing retreat much less one dedicated to haiku. Sharing space and breaking bread with other poets is magical. I’ve made a lot of friends and of course learned much from sharing the craft over 4 days.

Objectivity in #tanka and #haiku is an illusion. You the poet chose what to include and how to express it. Therefore, they are subjective. - M. Kei, my #tanka mentor
