denhagan: This is really nice, to have won the "What Makes Me Happy" poetry contest. I was trying to think of something to write a pantoum poem about. Then I saw this poetry contest to write a poem about what makes me happy, and I started writing. After several hours and several adjustments, I ended up with the finished product. Thanks, I am really happy to have won this contest with my first pantoum poem.

I have been interested in poetry and writing poetry at different periods, during my life.
And in the Spring of 2011, I was inspired to write poetry by some experiences I had while at college. I was fortunate in being able to find FanStory.com, that spring--which, with the help and advice I received from the other writers and poets here, and a poetry class I took with adewpearl--I was able to write poetry more prolifically than I ever had before. In fact, I produced over 50 poems in four months, in the Spring and Summer of 2011. I have continued to upgrade my poems and write more poetry, since then. I have finished a book of poetry, called "Poetry from the Heart" and submitted it for publication. My book has now been published and is available at my website: www.denhagan.com, at: www.xlibris.com, at: www.amazon.com, and at: www.barnesandnoble.com.
I obtained a Bachelor's degree in Economics with a minor in Finance in the Summer of 2012. I graduated with high honors.
I am currently pursuing work related to my degree. Until just recently--due to the economy--I had only been able to find factory or warehouse-type work. But, recently, I obtained a nice job that is related to my degree. It is in an office environment.
