The winner of January 2010 Picture Challenge is:



*~* Eunice Perkins winning entry can be read below*~*

In new year dreams of what it brings
I don't wish for material things,
for things to own and things to lease
do not bring happiness or peace.
It's things that money cannot buy
these are the things that signify.
Love of friends and family strong
feature in my new year song.
Happy times and simple fare
to take me gently through this year;
wisdom to make wise decisions,
a warm home and full provisions,
time to sit and dream a while,
time to laugh and time to smile,
to walk along a sandy beach
with creamy surf just out of reach.
I wish this too for all our members
till this year burns its final embers.

The winner of January Monthly Challenge is:

*~* Eunice Perkins winning entry can be read below*~*

Fire!

"Fire!" they screamed as it seared the evening,
flames wild leaping toward the sky.
"Fire!" they yelled and ran for cover.
explosions heard by the passers-by.
Firetruck screeched along the highway,
shrieking news to the listening town,
carrying its load to quench the inferno,
water for raging blaze to drown.

He was the first man into the building,
explosion hit him with all its force.
They dragged him from the conflagration;
loss of comrade evoked remorse.
Years of fighting fires had ended,
fire, long his enemy and friend,
flame of life by fire extinguished,
fire victorious in the end.
