Pure lyrics - quiet lyrics, without tenderness and affectation.

Yuri Pavlov, winner of the second prize in the nomination "Poems":

I really enjoyed the awards ceremony. There was a solemn, festive atmosphere. This year, for the first time, I participated in the awards of the Russian Union of Writers: I sent applications for the Poet of the Year and My Russia awards. In the competition almanac of the "My Russia" award, my poems were placed on only three pages. I did not expect that I would become a laureate. Participation in awards inspires, takes you out of your state creative crisis. In my opinion, the title of nominee for the "My Russia" award is very honorable.

Alexander Sizukhin, winner of the second prize in the nomination "Prose":

Becoming a laureate of the "My Russia" award is wonderful! At the time when I was at school, Yesenin did not pass, but, nevertheless, at all feasts they sang songs to his poems. I did not expect that, having become older, I would receive a prize named after the great Russian poet. I am glad that the jury appreciated my works.

All my work is dedicated to my small homeland- I was born in the suburbs and lived here all my life. Ryazan is not far from the place of my birth, here are the same landscapes, the same distances, that's what I'm writing about.

It seems to me that real literature should be permeated sincere love. I think that worthy authors who write with love will always be found on the Poetry.ru and Prose.ru portals. For novice authors, the award is an opportunity to test your strength, to find out what mistakes you make. Creative people an impulse is needed, and the award can become it.

Maria Shuvalova, winner of the third prize in the nomination "Poems":

For me, the award was a deep shock. And great joy. I consider the establishment of the "My Russia" award an achievement, an indicator that Yesenin's culture is reflected in modern times. Thanks a lot to the organizers of the award, this is a serious contribution to Russian literature.

For me, receiving the status of the laureate of the "My Russia" award became a sign that I do not do it in vain. I advise future participants of the "My Russia" award to always believe in yourself and knock on all doors! Participation in the awards is, first of all, communication with people, with the same authors as you, and in addition, the opportunity to learn something new.

Igor Mukhanov, winner of the third prize in the nomination "Prose":

I did not expect that I would become a laureate of the Sergei Yesenin Prize. I write in a folk style, and I think that's why the jury liked my works. It's nice that, despite the small amount of works submitted for the competition, the commission was able to appreciate them. This causes special respect.

I believe that the participants of the future competitive seasons of the "My Russia" award should focus on the folk in their work, write easily and freely. In the works, the main thing is your style, individuality.

It seems that the poet, by his appearance, asked such a question, the answer to which is the business of our life, our future. "The feeling of the Motherland is the main thing in my work."
