“I didn’t think it was going to be much walking in, but walking out I felt changed, moved, and maybe even refreshed. Not only just their writing, but even them, simply as people seem like such genuine and accepting people and I’m so glad I was blessed with the experience of meeting and hearing them perform.”

“Thank you so much for coming to share your poems and your stories. Your poems truly moved me and made me really enjoy poetry. I loved how your poems were about current topics that I could relate to, and I’m sure others could relate to as well. I have never been super interested in poetry before. I write a lot of songs on my guitar, but I never did much poetry that wasn’t to music. Now that you came, I am really interested in poetry now. I’m even thinking about maybe doing a teen poetry slam! In a nutshell, I’m so thankful that you came to our school.”
