Dave Crawley Wins Poetry Contest!

It's the March Madness of poetry, and now, KDKA's Dave Crawley is the national champion!

He's been competing in the online poetry tournament for a few weeks now.

With each round, he and the other poets got a new word and had just a few hours to come up with a new poem based on that word.

He won it all Thursday night with the word "Bumbershoot," as in umbrella.

If you want to read his poem and see how he matched up to fellow author Cheryl Lawton Malone click here!
