Pack your poetic passport — this week, the Poetry Pea Podcast is off to Borneo!

Our theme? Elephants in haiku and senryu, inspired by Borneo’s rare and gentle pygmy elephants.

In this episode:

• 🐘 Haiku & senryu from Linda Ludwig’s last video prompt editorship
• 📖 Treasures from past Poetry Pea Journals
• 🌿 Elephant-themed poems from other talented writers
• 🌏 Five fascinating facts about Borneo
• 💚 A closer look at Borneo’s endangered pygmy elephants
