The Ancient Greek word\u00a0poiesis\u00a0derives etymologically from the term that means \u201cto make.\u201d As the root of our modern word \u201cpoetry,\u201d this active verb implies a person who transforms and continues the world through the act of making something mindfully. In this four-hour workshop, we will explore the connection between two ancient practices: meditation and making poems. As such, we will practice brief meditations and undertake generative writing activities.<\/P>
