the lullaby of butterflies hums in the early morning air. a rounded light of gold above the purple clouds spots a blue filtered peak. trees unite as one in the constant drizzle of rain. flowers wild, spill in colors hurried to fill barren ground. mammals of every kind lay unseen, asleep and covered in blankets green. and I wonder, I wonder who, who would nullify?, this bouquet... of sweetly scented awes! With Love 22~12~2014

This poem is amazing, Armand! "who would nullify this bouquet of sweetly scented awes!" Very profound...and your poem even looks like a 'bouquet' to me. Congratulations on your well-deserved podium win. Sandra
