poetrypea.com is delighted to welcome Canadian poet Michael Dudley and two Croatian poets, Tomislav Maretić and Dejan Pavlinović to the show. Together they have co created a wonderful book of short form poetry, which they read to us. We discuss how it is they came together to work, how that process worked across different languages and generally what it is about haiku that makes us happy. Patricia discovers she is not the only haiku poet who is not particularly zen. Hope you enjoy listening.
