December 2016 saw the return of former teacher Maura Wolf to Noble for a midday poetry appreciation class. She brought together a devoted group of readers and writers from Noble and the wider community. Maura selected poems that accomplish something special, specifically, igniting a passion in the reader for the special qualities of poetic language, universal themes and verses that bring about an instant connection. Poems by Dylan Thomas, William Butler Yeats, Edna St. Vincent Millay, e.e. cummings, William Stafford and Mary Oliver, among others, were discussed.
