Steemit is Fun - Poetry!

in #steemit7 years ago
What can you do that is fun on Steemit? Maybe you are not the type to propose to your lover at a ball game on the huge display screen but maybe you have something special to say in poetry.

Writing Poetry Is Fun!

For fun, a few lines of poetry just might lead to an engagement because - Steemit posts are there forever! Yes you or the significant other can look back at all the love poems you wrote. You can even post your love back and forth in the comments. Who knows if the posts become good enough, they might pay for your wedding, reception, and honeymoon.

Poetry on Topics of the Day or Politics is Fun!

Ever wanted to make a public comment on whatever policy is out there? Steemit is the place to do it. There is no censorship but, taste and alacrity will earn you more and who knows? You just might end up being a poetic pundit. Rush Limbaugh is a pundit as well as a conservative and some of the little poems he turned into little songs, nearly killed me because I was usually driving on the highway. Is your humor as good as his, there is only one way to find out.

Poetry for the Purpose Memorable Events is Fun!

Maybe you have survived horrible events. Maybe you have survived wars or natural disasters, like marriage. Whatever history you might want to turn into a poem it really is fun.

Was the event uplifting? Was the event not worth surviving - sometimes a great cathartic expression of poetry can save you thousands on psychiatric therapy and give you the will to live because on Steemit you get paid and that is fun.

Poetry on Any Subject Is Fun!

Why, there are plenty of poets on Steemit and if you write poetry, there is no doubt other poets will read it and perhaps be inspired and upvote.

Yes, you can write poems about anything and in any style. If your poems are of the caliber of 'There once was a man from Nantucket', don't forget to use the NSFW tag. All lower case please!

Styles of Poetry:

  1. Sonnets
  2. Limericks

Example Poem Uses All of the Above

If Shakespeare were here today
We could wonder what he might say
To some it seems odd
Might he exclaim oh God
So upvotes weren't given for pay

The changes are great and make steemit more fun!

What can you do to promote Steemit?
