Roses are red, violets are blue,
I really love Steemit,
and I think you do too.
I wanted to do a contest to have some fun,
and I thought I'd make it a poetry one.
I'm not that good at writing in rhymes,
but it seemed like a nice way to spend some time.
I wanted to say a big thank you to you,
because I reached 1000 followers, I couldn't believe it was true.
So to celebrate I wanted to throw a contest,
to give out some Steem to the people I like best.
The Prize is a jackpot of 60 SBD,
How many winners? There can only be three!
It's time to get writing if you want to win,
First, Second and Third place, go out on a limb!
Write a poem about what Steemit is to you,
The best social media to make its debut.
Why do you like it, and what do you do here?
Does Steemit make you smile from ear to ear?
Don't take it too serious, It's just a bit of fun,
You don't need to be a pro to be number one,
just have a laugh and get a bit silly,
No need for long words or anything frilly.
30 SBD for first prize, 20 for second and 10 for third,
It's time for you to start arranging your words,
Comment below with a link to your post,
So I can decide which ones I loved the most!
When is the deadline, you ask?
You have one week to complete this task!
At payout of the post I will make a selection,
Time to get started on your introspection...
Last criteria to win the steem,
Don't forget to upvote, follow and of course - resteem!
Then I guess I have to do my best, either to win or lose this contest
What matters most is
I create wat I feel for my steemits best!
Haha, yay @dianargenti love your rhyming comment - can't wait to read your poem :)
Congratulations! I will ponder this test,
Oh yes, you're the best! Thank you for offering, good luck to the rest!

I started writing, but my poem turned out to be about foxes....
https://steemit.com/writing/@burtybasset/the-fox
Sorry. Maybe I will write another and not get distracted writing by foxes?
hahaha nice fox poem but yeah definitely I would love to see a poem about Steemit :)
Yes, I will try.
Easily amused, but easily distracted I guess. I will hook myself up to some electrodes in case my concentration wavers in future! 😆
