New glasses upon my face.
This new clear view sucks!

"Steem us up... Scotty"
Galaxies whizzing - Bright Light.
Can't. Take. My. Eyes. Off.
Welcome @jonknight
What an honourable poem, I really enjoyed this thank you
Good luck 🍀
Here is mine @moonleesteem:
You're Strong But There's Somebody Stronger
Wood is strong, but still
Steel steals the day they've kept, left
And swept out for wood
@nevies
Welcome @nevies
You have a wise poem on your hands, I like it
There is indeed someone always stronger
Including brain power (smarter)!
Good luck
Must you participate in every contest?
I wrote my haiku about Pandas. I also wrote a little song to go with it which you can hear on my post linked below!
rolling in the tall bamboo
Where are you hiding?

Welcome @morodiene
Thank you for your good panda poem
And for the extra bonus music, what a treat
Good luck 🍀
Thanks! I had written this haiku and the song for my young piano and voice students to play and sing :)
I just came with it in less than minute, sadly... True story... even when I'm in a new community where everyone is kind... one day someone will hate another and I'd feel bad because I'm a friend of both.... or at least consider myself to be...
Welcome @ahmadmanga
I really liked your entry, it is so true and has a good message
Good luck
And yes, I too, as a fan, would like to visit Japan
As a translator of haiku, how can I resist this contest. Here is one I was composing last night. It's not technically a haiku (no kigo, no kireji) but if you will accept it:
Title: The perils of healthy living
No more beer at night
The doctor told me. I think
Is good health worth this?
BTW, I tried to resteem twice but it doesn't seem to be working. It's quite late here in Japan so I'm going to bed now. If it hasn't resteemed tomorrow when I wake up, I will try again at that time.
Welcome @dbooster
I like this poem of yours, there's nothing like a cold beer
Steemit has been having problems with the resteem button so I will let that go
I would really like to accept your poem,
But first you have to upvote this post so your entry can be valid.
Thank you for your entry and Good Luck
I tried resteeming again. I don't see anything in my timeline, but the resteem arrow turned green. Can you tell if I resteemed it? Also, I upvoted the post.
Okay don't worry your entry is valid. Steem on!
In the spirit of the season:
Once gone ghosts return
Hallowe'en; day of the dead
I hope she goes back
Welcome @mweich
Nice poem, just in time for Halloween
I liked the spookiness
Good luck
Fuck the world people!
Chino in the fucking house
No doubt its me dear
Welcome @twotripleow
This was a gangsta style poem, very confident
Maybe you are a good rapper
Anyway good luck
