My Submission for Bahbahra’s Buddies Contest
Hello All!
I decided to do a submission to a wonderful new contest on Steemit.
This is my submission for @tattoodjay's Photo & Story Contest titled Bahbahra’s Buddies Contest, click here to see the original contest post
Hope you enjoy my submission. Let's get started!
I saw your post on Steemit and knew I had to contact you. You seem like such a sweet Sheep and seem to have a wonderful friend that you live with. I was thinking about how to reply to you as I don't usually do this sort of thing, but here it goes.
My name is Gregory. My friends have nicknamed me Olaf because apparently, I resemble some famous snowman from a movie I haven't seen. Anyways, I currently live in Sunny Florida. I know you must be thinking, why would a snowman live in Florida? Well, the thing is, my family lives here. They keep the air conditioning on so I stay inside and keep intact. However, because I cannot venture outside the majority of my friends, whom I adore, also live with me and I thought it would be nice to get to know someone else who lives in a different place. So, here I am.
I have included my picture for you since you were so nice to share yours. If you can't tell, I was extremely excited to see your post. I immediately went to work and made a nice picnic. These are some of my most favorite things, and even though we are pen pals (or hoping we can be), and I can't actually share them with you in real life, I thought it would be nice to set it up anyways.
I love picnics. This is my favorite way to spend time with friends. I bring my favorite white, pink, and red checkered blanket to lay down on the ground so we are comfortable. Lots of fruit to share, and some bubbly water. I love to spend hours just chatting and listening. I am a really good listener. Also, I thought you may appreciate the fact that I am a snowman. The thing about snowmen is they are cool. So on those days where your wooly coat is making you too hot and you don't know what to do, I am here. I could sit beside you and cool you off because I am always cool. I think we would have a lot of fun together.
Besides picnics, I absolutely love to write poetry. It is one of my favorite pastimes. It takes me a while because my stick hands have a hard time holding anything, so from time to time I need to get the local beaver in my house to sharpen one of my stick arms so that I can scribble stuff down. I would type it up on a computer but my human family don't often leave their technology on or lying around for me to use. I made a poem just for you. I asked my human to type it up for me and post it back to you, she agreed to help me out. I hope you like it.
Poem for Bahbahra
A sheep so sweet
She searches for friends
My heart skipped a beat
When I read her post until the end
A friend I hope that I can be
I would be lucky to connect, you see
We could write to each other
Share all of our stories
I will pick you some flowers
And we can share some brownies
I do hope that she will choose my friend request
Then my heart will be happy and I will be set
Anyways, that is all I have. I hope you will consider me to be your Steemit Pen Pal friend.
Nice to meet you BahBahra.
Sincerely,
I hope you had fun reading it, I definitely had fun writing it.
As usual, Stay Awesome Steemians!

Awww... Nice to meet you Gregory 😆 such a cute story and the poem was a really nice touch 🤗 loved it
Thank you 😀 I had a lot of fun with this for sure.
I can understand that 😉 so adorable and creative.
Bahbahra was literally swooning as we read the letter and poem from Gregory she think he sure sounds so cool in many ways and she is generally touched by such a sweet introduction
To be fair to the contest and all participants she will respond as originally planned on Thursday evening
PS JJ loved this also
Awww, well I have relayed all the nice compliments to him. He is very proud he was able to come off like a gentleman, well, gentlesnowman.
Lol my 3 yo raised his voice looking at the pic
Olaf! That's Lego, mommy
Nice to meet you, Gregory!
haha awesome! Glad I was able to make someone excited about that. Gregory says hello
Awww...isn't that just the sweetest :)
He is quite a sweet soul
hello, how cute, you make it difficult for others, good luck and happy day
Nice try Gregory, and well written, but Bahbahra has to be more interested in her own kind! LOL! Birds of a feather and all that! Hamish the Scottish Black Faced Sheep, is waiting eagerly to be bahbahra's penpal!
Hahaha you are clever!
But of course. I have Hamish cheering me on! @tattoodjay wants us to have fun with this, so I'm going all the way for Hamish! :-) :-) :-)
Awww this was soo soo soo and soo sweet and warm. Gregory is really warm to be around and I loved every bit of this post!
