Music in Nature - Contest Winners
First I want to thank all of the people who entered this contest. It was amazing to see all of the creative talent out there. It was also a very difficult decision and as a result there are seven winners total. One grand prize winner, one runner up and five honorable mentions. The grand prize goes to Glynis Smyfor her poem - Symphony of Life. Glynis has graciously asked that the $10.00 cash and CD dollar equivalent be donated to my favorite charity. So I have in her name donated to the Dorothy Olivieri Memorial fund benefiting the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital the amount of $25.00. As a result of her kind gesture, she will receive 1000 Entrecard credits. Thank you Glynis.
Symphony of Life by Glynis SmyCrystal sound, echo notes of beauty,Listen...soft, gentle singing of the rain,A chorus flows to quench the thirst,Give life to Mother Earth.A crescendo of cymbals!Crash! Electric starslight the stormy sky.Then-turn the page...And Jazz surrounds me,Skipping to the song …
