F2E. The Poetic Pulse
Literature & Writing | Registration opens 2/25/2026 9:00 AM
Explore forms of verse from haikus to sonnets, villanelles to pantoums with Lee Woodman. We’ll savor the work of time-honored poets to learn the mechanics of meter, rhyme, and structure. “Loosening up” exercises and speed prompts will pave the way for time to draft longer formal poems during each session, with suggestions for topics and imagery. Both curious newcomers and seasoned writers are welcome—all that’s needed is a sense of adventure and faith in the magic of language.
