The autumn meeting of the Red Dragonflies was held on Saturday, 13th March atBarbara Fisher’s home in Mosman. Vanessa Proctor led members Beverley George,Lesley Walter, Cynthia Rowe, Dawn Bruce and Barbara Fisher in a stimulatingseries of haiku exercises. One particularly challenging exercise was to write an autumnhaiku without using the word ‘autumn’, while anonymous contributions to the haikubowl provoked the usual interest and hilarity.
Vanessa also presented everyone with an attractively produced chap-book of haiku selected from work inspired by the group’s ginko at Pearl Beach last December.
