Poetry Club Introduction
August 5, 2008 By Kieron Boyle of Edgewood High School
POETRY CLUB Advisor: Mrs. Simpson
The Edgewood Poetry Club began last winter. We meet weekly to share our love of poetry, both through reading and writing. Last spring, the Poetry Club hosted students from Hamilton High School for a Coffeehouse/Poetry Reading. We also published an anthology of poetry by Edgewood students. Proceeds from the sale of the publication were used to purchase a llama from Heifer International, a world hunger organization that sends livestock to third world countries in order to give families and communities hope and assistance through agricultural and animal projects.
The poems here written by our talented Edgewood poets: Allison Back, Nicole Schanke, Sam Gheorghiu, Abi Simpson, Catherine Meade, Craig Cumpston, Amber Pressler, Glenn Battishill, Erin Ballard, Rik Little |
