The Martin Luther King Jr. poetry contest held by the Rochester Diversity Council gives local students the opportunity to express themselves freely.
Students like Willow Creek Middle School seventh-grader Eli Kagel and Byron High School ninth-grader Samantha Solberg used this contest as a chance to show their current interpretation of society through their winning poems “Tapestries Alive” and Life Seals You in a Path.
