Description

We will read and write poetry on Serendipity Farm, which is nestled at the foot of Mt. Walker in the Olympics.  This class is open to beginning, intermediate, and seasoned poets.  We will research and present on contemporary poets as we explore our various poetic voices within an inner and outer landscape.  We will write haiku, free verse, nature poems, and other poetic forms.  Students will perform their work around the campfire at night.  Students can expect their writing and understanding of poetry to be enhanced significantly.
