SteemitPoetryContest #3 - An Ocean of Words

in #poetry7 years ago

Today I decided to write a poem in English for the first time as an entry to the Steemit Poetry Contest #3 by @terrycraft.

I can tell, it's not so easy to find rhymes in a foreign language, but anyway - here it is:

An Ocean of Words​

There is a ocean big and wide
There is no water, there is no tide
Dolphins and whales are the fish within.
And minnows, like I shortly have been.

Words are flowing more and more
Some float on the surface, some dive to the core.
Touching the heart, touching the soul
For me this is a worthy goal.

The ocean keeps growing day by day
Like sprouting flowers in early may.
Sources come and sources go
Everything is in a steady flow.

I hope you enjoyed reading my poem about steemit. :D I had fun writing it and I'm looking forward to the next poetry contest.

Greetings from Austria, where there unfortunately is no ocean. :(
