NEW! Bridal Registry here!
....Art from Ashes is a Colorado public charity whose mission is to empower struggling youth by providing creative programs that facilitate health and hope through expression, connection and transformation.
Here is a Phoenix Rising Poetry & Spoken Word workshop in action:
Mile High Youth Corps is a great organization that develops teamwork and leadership skills in youth in the metro Denver area through meaningful service opportunities and educational experiences. It's an outstanding program and a cherished partnership. Tonight's graduation features one of Art from Ashes' Youth Poet, Chance Two Crow, who is also a member of our Board of Directors. Mile High Youth Corps Graduates Chance Two Crow (his real name), T.J. Thomas and Alumni Mentor, La'Kyla Byrd's performance ends with a standing ovation. Yea graduates and yea Mile High Youth Corps!
I never had the pleasure of meeting this young man, but I carry his poem with me everywhere I go. Ricardo attended our workshop at Kepner Middle School. Ricardo was 12 when he wrote the last of the 4 poems he recited for this Denver Open Media show titled "The Dance My Father Taught Me" that was written in 3 minutes.
President Obama has launched United We Serve, a new initiative encouraging all Americans to commit themselves to community service this summer. The President recorded a video announcing this new project and laying out a strong case for community service. Take a moment for inspiration and ask our Volunteer Coordinator, Gabriela Perez, gabriela@artfromashes.org, how you may get involved with Art from Ashes.

My favorites include smooth jazz, live traditional jazz, classical, easy listening, latin, popular music, piano and guitar instrumentals. I'm crazy about reggaeton too. My Japanese favorites include Mariko Takahashi, Misora Hibari, Theresa Teng, Seiko Matsuda, and Namie Amuro.Movies

Who I'd like to meet:
I've already met so many genuine people who want to help struggling youth and love poetry on myspace, I want to meet more so please help me spread the word.
I'd also like to meet people who are excited about Art from Ashes! Avid skydivers, people who have skydiving on their bucket lists or adding skydiving to their bucket lists or can be talked into it. I need celebrities and people who want to raise money for Art from Ashes by skydiving. It's fun!
My website is dedicated to an organization who respects and helps struggling youth so I will periodically go through your blogs and pictures for appropriate content. I love reading and listening to poetry and I love how poetry has the ability to heal and transform lives. Send your poems in a comment and I'll post them for everyone to enjoy.
