S8E28 Poetry Pea Reading with Julie Bloss Kelsey
What does healing sound like in haiku? This week, poet Julie Bloss Kelsey joins me to read from her deeply moving collection, Grasping the Fading Light: A Journey Through PTSD — winner of the 2021 International Women’s Haiku Contest. Her work brings vulnerability, strength, and beauty to the page. Together we explore grief, trauma, recovery, and resilience — through the gentle force of haiku, senryū, and tanka. This is an episode full of humanity and hope. You might think it’s not for you — but poetry this honest speaks to all of us. Also available to watch on Poetry Pea's YouTube channel. shownotes
