the monthly poetry and acoustic music event at Village Blues Bar, was slated to be a benefit for ailing Ardenne High School student Ayala Bennett.
Instead, it turned out to be a celebration of her life. Bennett died on Sunday, the day of the event.
Her image was shown on the screen at the Barbican Road, St Andrew venue, but it was the words of those who knew her which spoke best to Bennett's love for poetry.
