♥ Splendid photographers -and beloved PT Pals – Phillip Angert and Gustavo Huber♥ gift us with a taste of the visual magic at the “Burning Man” Festival…
Being Tim’s birthday, Robert Huber presented their breakfast table with his special “Carved Pineapple” – after we all had sung the “H.A.P.P.Y.” song with gusto!
For him an Impressionist version of the view from the INN’s windows -with the 2 swans that have graced our lagoon this year!
(And since the PT Kinetic Festival is coming next month… to further celebrate, we promise you a pic/video of the P.T. Kinetic Sculpture Parade here pretty soon! ; )

Master Poet Christopher Herold presides the creative table. J.J., poet and artist, and Carol sit by his left…
Creativity and form find a most conscious balance in this ancient art of Renky Poetry. Lots to ask and consult with each other…
Verbal, and literary consultations are required and welcome. Here Master Karma Tenzing Wangchuk is finding pertinent information…
EveryOne is envolved…
Suggestions and ideas are invited to freedom -curiosly possible within a most strict set of rules, favoring novelty, quality, variety, and mostly, awareness…
The group is open and welcoming. It gathers once every month, and fosters the most delightful society, and fun…
Friendship, food, drink and colaboration are the norm…
Interestingly, after each Poetry stanza is accomplished and unanimously approved, it is shared as “the new” part of the ongoing Renku Poem…And invariable, the feeling seems delicious to me!
If you are curious and/or interested in contacting this splendid and unique group -which honors the intellect and spirit of Port Townsend with its existence, please ad your comment here with your e-mail. I’ll promptly answer you, and get you in touch with Christopher and Karma Tenzing.
CHEERS FOR RENKU!!!
On going poem of the Port Townsend RENKU Poetry Group:
A SKEIN OF OLD YARN
(an autumn kasen renku)
begun on August 20 at the Huber Inn
Sabaki: Christopher Herold
Jay Haskins, Leticia Huber, Karma Tenzing Wangchuk, Carmi Soifer, Bethel, Jackie Barr, Alison Hedlund, Carol O’Dell, Doris Thurston, Tanya McDonald
1 autumn (Jay)
morning light
dragonflies barely ripple
the lagoon
2 autumn moon (Leticia)
does this warmth
come from you, O moon?
3 autumn (Tenzing)
the scarecrow’s
lost a button or two
off his coat
4 No Season (Carmi)
my neighbor weaves
a skein of old yarn
5 winter (Bethel)
in his cold hut
the hermit prepares
rosehip tea (Bethel)
6 winter (Jackie)
a rare visitor leaves
footprints in the snow
7 No Season (Alison)
just inside the door
lies an envelope
with a foreign stamp
8 No Season (Jay)
bits of paper protrude
from the eagle’s nest
9 Love (Jackie)
her new bikini
causes his eyes to bug out
and his heart to flutter
10 love (Jackie)
the scent of perfume
wafts from the dryer
11 love (Carol)
as I read my book
I hear her sing a lullaby
to our daughter
12 No Season (Jay)
if clouds could speak
these would whisper
13 summer moon (Doris)
summer moon
swallowed
by the mountain
14 summer (Tanya)
bats begin to swoop
all around the camp
15 No Season (Carol)
three girls
race for the white horse
on the carousel
