Welcome to Steemit, and thanks for the upvote on one of my recent posts. I appreciate it! I thought I'd check out what you have going on here and am pleased to see someone else who values writing and poetry. Although I don't do a lot of writing I try my best to encourage others by lending my support and attention to quality work.
I think you came to the right place to have your work appreciated with hopefully some lucrative rewards for the reward pool. I know how difficult it can be for new Steemians and it is often discouraging for some of us who post and receive little to no acknowledgement. I wish you the best!!
