Heather Hallman wins SW poetry contest

In honor National Poetry Month, South Western High School also had a poetry contest which I judged as Poet Laureate. I'm pleased to announce the winner is Heather Hallman. Her poem, "Winter Morning," won the contest.

Winter Morning


Winds like deep, slow breaths,
Leaves askew on the surface,
White blanket rests,
No dreams in this fitful slumber,
A door creaks open,
The blanket shifts,
The sun is reavealed,
Nature's yawn.
