About This Poem
Last Few Words: A dedication to (Iriz). I found the name so close to one of my favorite flowers, the iris, so I thought I'd put it all in the vase of Sunku. Hope you all enjoy it.

Hello Rula!
Hello Rula!
I am speachless. Thank you for your wonderful poem concluding our workshop. Workshop that was enriched by your presense and talant.
I have chosen the penname just based on my first name initial and a last name fused together.
With Russian accent it does sounds like Iris,(a name of a Greek godess messanger that connects people) because we have a tendency to soften consoenants at the end of the word.
It is a very poetic member of the Olimpus.
I relate to her because I wanted to bring messages of love and kindness to the world and help to connect people together. Neopoet is a great means for the purpose.
I am looking forward to reading more of your poetry. Sincerely yours, Irene Riz.
