Yay!  I won my first photo contest (but I guess you already knew that)!  Canvas On Demand was having a Valentine's contest where you were supposed to enter a photo and poem that reminds you of someone you love (I chose my wife ).  So I guess I won my first poetry contest, too!  This was the photo:

Swans nuzzling
And this poem:

My Warm Spring Day

As I peer into your eyes,
Into the never ending glow of light,
My heart goes thump,
I become lost in your gaze.
In this trance,
I dream of warm spring days.
Red, orange and yellow sunsets
Stretching across the horizon
Setting the world ablaze.
Flowers blooming
Sending their fragrance through the skies.
Birds singing,
Their beautiful songs filling my ears.
Fields of gold, forests of green
This world must be a dream!
You gently squeeze my hand,
Suddenly, I awake!
As I look upon your eyes and smile,
I realize
You are my warm spring days.

I won the image on a 16x16 canvas with the poem written on the right side!  It's supposed to arrive tomorrow and I can't wait to see it!

Happy Vday, baby (though we do both despise Vday).

Well done! I like how the necks and heads of the swans formed a heart shape.

That is a beautiful photo!  Thanks for sharing!

The poem - well done!

Oh, I just showed my wife and she liked it, too!  However, no BCBC.

Thanks all!  I was hoping to give it to her today, but with the weather we've had it won't be here until Monday
