Picture from the Coogler Festival


     Thanks to Buddy Price for the picture from last month's J.G. Coogler Poetry Festival and to the Country Chronicle of Blythewood, SC, for mentioning "local poet Art Turfa" along with the students, who were the real stars of the evening. The event was well-attended, and is the third annual in a series that will go on for a long time.

      Two of my students were ill, and could not read original poetry. Another read a poem by Coogler. I read one from ym book, but chekc out this link to see what the studnts wrote:http://bwoodpoetry.weebly.com/poem-of-the-week.html   Navigate back to see the entire site.
