Done for Recuerda Mi Corazon
On April 17, 2017, Adjei Agyei Baah, (a world-renowned haiku poet from home) and myself facilitated a haiku workshop with students of the Creative Writing Class of the Department of English, University of Ghana, Legon. At the end of the workshop, the students came up with lovely haiku of their own, twenty-eight (28) in all. Adjei and I came up with one each. Mine is produced below for your pleasure 🙂
