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 …
What Do You Feel?
A poem for my Sammers
By Joanne Olivieri

What do you see?
My little guy
When seeing the sunrise
Outside the window
Hearing birds calling
And butterflies flitting
Amongst the flowers.
What do you see?
My little guy
When dreaming at twilight
Through dull shadows
Seeing green forests
And gallant trees
Amongst natures path.
What do you feel?
My little guy
When playtime begins
From dusk till dawn
Hearing beautiful melodies
And jazzy beats
Dancing and singing.
I hope you feel
The love I hold
In my heart
For you.
