The winners of the Steemit Poetry Contest #2
1st Place - “Ecnelis” by @joeandrew97
When words doesn’t fit in,
We shouldn’t talk, whisper nor sigh.
Things sometimes are exactly how they seem,
Silence as a scream…
You feel powerless and frail.
Unspeakable sorrows in this tale
Want to speak out but you fail,
Silence as a jail…
When everything is already said,
You can lie down on your bed.
Finally breaks down the storm,
Silence as home…
2nd Place - "The Loudness of Silence" by @jennfer
Oh Silence! You're often misunderstood,
You can make or break anyone's mood,
You can provoke a person to become more mad,
Or cause a lonely one to become even more sad.
Soundless, yet you're louder than a scream,
You're an introvert's ultimate dream,
You're appreciated by those who want to be heard,
You're an act of respect and politeness even without saying a word.
You give us a moment of quiet introspection,
A necessity in times of meditation,
Self realization is what you always promote,
More importantly you help us find peace and inner growth.
3rd Place - "Serenity"by @kalki-aum
I find myself in a Serene Space,
Harmonious Vibrations and no one to face!
Beautiful day, Beautiful night,
Live life good and all feels right!
I Love the Silence in Nature's space,
In Peace I sit, not running no race!
This is wonderful, I have to say,
Be true to yourself and have an amazing day!
How lovely it is to practice self love,
Always in the moment, here and now!
Not dreaming of the future or stuck in the past;
Be aware of this or life may pass by too fast.

Hei, you will have to change the logo of Steemit, now that is the STEEM logo. I still like more the old one :D
Hi! Yep... but I like old logo much more :) Don't wanna change it ^ ^
Same here, don't know why they changed it. I mean it was confused with the one from STEEM
I associate a new logo with Twitter, I do not know why... so the "classic" logo is my choice :)
My first entry ever for this lovely contest...I never thought I'd make it, thanks @terrycraft

Congratulations to the winners of the Steemit Poetry Contest #2!
Hi there @terrycraft!
You've got an awesome contest going and I'd like to offer my 2 cents of a helping hand to make it even a bit more popular.
Currently I'm making animated videos to promote steem contests outside of steem for free (I announced the offer here) and I'd be happy if you decided you want one to promote your contests targeted at people who haven't heard of this wonderful platform yet.
Here's the first one I made about a sports contest, but I'll be happy to redo it in a way that it would fit what you are doing.
When I make the video for you, you'll be able to upload it wherever you want and use it in whatever way you see fit.
Congratulations to the fabulous winners. These are all so beautiful!
Here is my entry for your consideration:

Here is my entry :) Not an expert but this is written from the heart :)
High and Low
Hellow world!
I am here again, dropping my entry for Steemit Poetry Contest #3.
If I Were A Sea
Please come! Drink with me a cup of verses and rhymes.
The Divine Sea
The sea is like an open dream,
Where some get lost and some feel at home,
Nobody can defeat the sea,
even it is Hydrogen or Atom Bomb.
It's the best place to observe,
whether sunrise or sunset it is;
Where the stars speak loudly,
And The water and the sky have a kiss !
Never doubt your life,
It's like open sea.
Sometimes stormy and sometimes beautiful,
Just like everyone's life suppose to be
Here is my first Entry
