Great words of encouragement thank you, until steemit I never actually tried to write a poem. I have always enjoyed famous quotes and words of wisdom but never thought of myself as being able to come up with them myself. Then I saw a steemit contest for one and thought I would give it a try. I had fun and felt challenged so it was pretty cool. Then on only my second poem I ever wrote I won one of the contest so that pushed me to know I could do good and to keep it up.
