> Corrigan with the following winning poem:
> 
>  
> 
> What far off thought
> 
> can come to rest in the company of friends?
> 
>  
> 
> What rooted promise
> 
> can take flight at the mere invocation of curiosity?
> 
>  
> 
> This circle describes,
> 
> an energetic inscription
> 
> a container that is itself a call,
> 
> that draws forth the needed salve.
> 
>  
> 
> There is the sweet dance of the heart
> 
> driven by the lightness of inspired vision setting its intention
> 
>  
> 
> And there is the solitary stationary act stuck in the muddy earth that seeks
> its ascendance.
> 
>  
> 
> This simple shape holds all the energy that is needed for dreams to soar and
> brilliance to ground.
> 
>  
> 
> Lifted and held.
> 
> Like a hawk on a thermal
> 
> Like a child gazing at the moon.
