Feli is an amazing friend with a wonderful sense of humor. She’s always ready to cheer people up and she achieves that beautifully!!! She’s dedicated to this community via group work and mentoring other deviants and leaving thoughtful comments on our pages. She features people all the time, she truly goes out of her way to make us all stand out!!! :love:
Her uplifting comments and cheerful personality is something that makes those of us who have the pleasure to interact with her often, happy to call her our friend!!! It’s rare to see people who can connect with others the way Feli does, but she does it, she succeeds making her friends and watchers feel special!!! :heart:
I think not just this community, but the WHOLE world is a better place because of her existence!!! :heart: I love our Feli, and I nominate  her because she has earned her wings through the love she spreads around on a daily basis!!!

As a side note, when I lost two of my core gangstas due to personal circumstances and I desperately needed help, she jumped in to help without even batting a lid. When it turned out that Eve would not return it was logical to make her a core gangsta, so this is kind of a double celebration.

WE LOVE YOU DEAR FELI!!!

The words charming, passionate and dedicated don't even begin to describe our next angel! Phyllis is one of the kindest and most supportive deviants around and is always helping others in any way she can. Her gallery is overflowing with positive energy and you can feel the joy in everything she shares! She's always there for a deviant that might be struggling and not sure where to go next and she supports those she watches by spreading their informative journals, contests, and projects through DevNews.
In addition to her main account, she also has a stock account where she offers high quality stock with lenient rules. Her efforts earned her the "Great Stockers with Fair Rules" award in 2014. Phyllis is also a highly respected member of the Senior community where she is an avid contributor! Just recently, she started a brand new interview series through DevNews to further give exposure to outstanding members of the community. If you add one new name to your watch list today, let it be WDWParksGal...you won't be disappointed!

Thank you for the incredibly touching contribution that you make to all those who cross your path Ricky!


and to my longest friend:i'm looking for the right words
like i was sifting through hallmark cards
in the friendship section.
and i can't seem to find
an all-encompassing emotion packed,
sentiment riddled piece
that lets you know how much
you really mean to me,
but i guess that's what happens
when you're looking
in the wrong places.
and that first stanza
is indicative of the friendships
i had before i met you
nearly 3 years ago.
the times are changing
and we're in different spaces
with our friendship tested
but our loyalty never faded
in the face of mistakes
and time wasted.
now, in the face of education
turning over yet another leaf
in the spring semester,
we are here again.
my longest friend,
we've nearly made it 3 years together
and i'm so glad that we've traveled
together on this journey
of dreaming, losing, crying
and living.
i thought of ways i could make this poetic
with abstract verbiage about a friendship
that is as solid as concrete foundation,
but i've come to appreciate the finer points
of sim
  but i hold my hands out, ad infinitumpolysemous kneels and jaded,
i curl ambiguity against
the collapsing walls of
ambigram.
letters folded into wings
and gone again.
(maybe they're fluttering,
gliding, soaring, drifting (away))
i cannot fly and
nor can you.
and my voice is clawed
into the branch where i was born
and i am not st. vincent;
i cannot birth in reverse.
no matter how much
i try to carve the words
out from my jawed
insides
out.
but this love and sadness
is baroque, climactic
and dramatic.
i look for you
in the attic of my mouth
and the basement of my hands--
i hear you in the corner
of this dystopian (uni)verse
and know better than to reach
for you now,
the room will only fall in on us.

A Week Of KissesA Week Of Kisses
 
i.
The first day I told you I loved you,
I imagined kissing your shoulder,
Well before I thought about your lips.
Because I don’t know what I am doing, firstly,
But more importantly,
It’s because I know things can spiral quickly,
If things start shifting
After we lay down the concrete.
So I kiss the foundation,
Before we reach the soil.
 
ii.
The second day I told you I loved you,
I imagined kissing your elbow,
Because it holds together the touch
And the flex.
But truly,
To exhibit it,
I must kiss the joint that bends
And combines us together.
 
iii.
The third day I told you I loved you,
I lay my lips to your temples,
As I learned about the temple of reform,
For the Youth in North America.
Kissing you there signifying I will protect you,
As well as your temple,
As we re-form, into something more.
 
iv.
The fourth day I told you I loved you,
I’d kiss you softly on your forehead.
Because that’s what holds your brillian
  ChrysanthemumChrysanthemum
 
Last night, I dreamt of us.
We were together on a mountaintop,
I was sitting on the edge,
With my legs dangling above the bottomless pit,
With a lone, white chrysanthemum in my hand as I pull the petals from the stem.
While you were standing above me, looking on, languidly,
None of us wanting to say anything,
My own mental battle sewing my lips to one another,
Unable to speak,
While you were probably trapped within your own mental depths;
In my mind, I was debating between venting and jumping,
Simply over the fact I didn’t know what that look was in your eyes,
But I think that’s probably the point, that we’re no longer of the same kind,
Maybe I changed into something I’m unaware of, maybe you were the one to transform,
But I don’t get the same feel of what used to be,
This is foreign to me,
An unapologetic feeling of extreme apathy,
And that is the unfortunate reality of this situation,
No matter how long

Denise has been a member of Deviantart for a year, yet she has made perhaps even more contribution to Deviantart than someone who has been here for ten times as much. It’s impossible to see that she  has gone full force in every aspect of making DA a great community. She is there whenever there is a worthy cause to promote, or an artist to give support. She leads a group for digital artists and a senior contributor to another one, helping another people in her field to get some attention. But that’s not the only way she helps fellow artists to get more exposure. She’s the founder of The-Feature-Showcase and a moderator at GetDailyDeviations , both aiming to discover outstanding art. She also often suggests daily deviations, mostly in her own category – digital art -, but is helping photographers as well. She’s also moderator of a group which is specialized to bring underestimated artists to the spotlight, not to mention her astounding features and interviews with digital artists. Talking about community, Denise is a contributor to several reputable groups trying to promote positivity, holding communities together, helping newbies to start their own way, and is a supervisor at of dAWishingWell and helps to grant wishes of really many deviants. And last, but not least, she’s been a gangsta of love for a really long time – and after so many acts of kindness, good deeds, devotion and love given to every single deviant she knows, she really deserves to earn her wings!
