I have been on Steemit for over a year now and I met so many amazing people since I joined in August 2016. It was a tough start until I build my "fan base" which isn´t really a fan base but rather a big family who supports each other. I recently talked to @moonleesteem and the lovely astronaut told me about the Haiku contest.
Haiku (Japanese 俳 句, plural: haiku, also: haikus) is a traditional Japanese poetic form, which is now spread worldwide. The (or the) haiku gilds as the shortest poem form in the world.
Rules for the contest

2... Write a Haiku consisting of three lines about any topic of your choice
3... Your first line must be Only 5 syllables, no more or less...
(For example: Steemit is the best)
4... Your second line must be Only 7 syllables, no more or less...
(For example: Minnows will become the whales)
5... Your third and final line must be Only 5 syllables, no more or less...
(For example: We all can inspire)
6... You can use up to 2 images/gifs maximum for your Haiku Entry
7... Submit your valid Haiku poem entry, as/with a comment posted down below on this post
8... Your entry isn't required to be titled, but a good title does help

Bald Head
He still had his smile
Although he was losing his
Hairs... to find wisdom
