Pearlescent Poems # 50: Please Don't Quit @KarenMcKersie! WHY I STEEM WITH LOVE (Original Poem)

Whether that is a loved one, a close friend, a family member, or someone new you've been meeting
Steemit has been and still is a great platform for many of us and I'm grateful
I'm also one not to riot or rage in a debate and be hateful

I am appreciative for all my followers, and create with a love shared with my children and wife
When I see someone hurting, if I can help, then I shall
@karenmckersie to me, is one kindhearted gal

Words are very powerful and my intentions are just to soothe
There are many people I think of when I evaluate the pricelessness of this platform
I've made many friends here, and have been inspired to transform
Only together can we grow immensely, and answer each others pleads
The community here is worth staying for, and I will be a pillar of hope
Sometimes we need a helping hand, I present mine both to help you cope

Thank you for reading this post in its entirety, I hope you enjoyed it for what it's worth.
I'll still be continuing accepting donations until I can reach my goal to fly out to america with my children and wife to visit my family as it is very urgent indeed.
I've raised $811 and .73 cents of Steemit Currency in total from both My Posts and Donations from Steemit Community Members this 2017 forward and $00.00 in US Dollar Donations so far towards my goal of $ 6,000.00 (Six Thousand) US Dollars and will keep everyone updated with every new future post that I submit.
This total amount will not only include donations I've received to the Paypal account I've provided: [email protected], but it will also include the Steemit Currency that I accrue/receive from all of my personal posts starting the 1st of January of 2017 forward calculated after a 48 hour time frame is finished for the payout cycle of each post to avoid miscalculating the fluctuating price of Steemit Currency.
For more information on that, please check my New Year's/Happy Bday Post
Thanks sincerely again in advance for all your help, anything and everything helps.
A SPECIAL THANKS TO ALL GENEROUS AND GIVING DONORS HERE FROM THE STEEMIT COMMUNITY!

Very nice of you doing a great post and an amazing poetry for her!Cheers bro!
Thanks bro, just doing my part and I felt compelled to do so. I'm glad it was well received for all who this was meant for. We truly can make a difference if people are willing to listen and have an open mind on certain situations.
Yes, indeed! I also made a post about this and I had so many comments that I never had since I joined! As you said we only have to open our mind and listen. Everything will be just fine without fighting.
Cheers bro!
Oh wow!!! This post and your generous donation of 100.000 steem into my wallet along with everyone elsses generosity has truly overwhelmed me !!! I cant believe all the awesome support from this wonderful community that i have recived ! THANK YOU YOUR SO AWESOME FOR DOING THIS !! And i really hope you reach your goal and travel to see your family soon ! You really should not have sent me anything , and i wish you the best of luck in reaching your goals ! With all this wonderful support i may stay on a little more then part time now ! I just wont post like 3 times a day as before ! Lol! ✌😊👍
You are most welcome, I appreciate the positive wishes for my family and I. Looking forward to you staying. I never post 3 times a day, usually one per day is enough, and when I do post twice, I never get whale love for both posts. All of us minnows can relate to feeling left out but I just keep trucking forward because the rewards are only an incentive, and the social networking aspect of it all is amazing for an artist such as myself who enjoys being heard and interacting and being inspired from other artists and creators alike. Best of success for your retirement truly
Thanks for that ! And the best of luck to you in life and on steemit ! 👌💙✌❤
Again you're very welcome and thank you :)
Thank you for bringing a positive vibe to Steemit. Your efforts are appreciated.
You're most welcome, glad to provide such vibes, it is needed anywhere and everywhere. Thanks for taking time out to read this. Much appreciated
