In Round 1, @trueconspiracy won the photo contest with this interesting entry! It was his winning photo that provided the inspiration for the artwork in Round 2. A lot of creative and interesting entries came in, but in the end I had to choose just one winner.
In Round 2, some amazing artwork came in and @fugit won with this masterpiece. It was an amazing image that was sure to inspire some excellent memes!

In Round 3 there were even more great entries and eventually @happyme took the win with this meme, that somehow hit home for @papa-pepper and others.

THE KING - BY @moeknows
Content created
Followers elated
Rewards to follow
for those who curated
The king, he teems
With knowledge of dreams
As he writes his book
Of How To Steem
Upvotes and comments
The sensei he trains
All of his work
inscribed in the chain
The technology serves him
At his feet
He's mastered his craft
And earned his seat
His benevolent reign
Almost complete
He has only to conquer
One last feat
Reining the sun
His reigning done
The king of steem
His kingdom come
You guys had a crazy amount of amazing poems entered last round and you made my job insanely difficult! It was even tougher than usual, but in the end I chose @moeknows. CONGRATS! The 50 STEEM from last round is yours!
A big thanks to everyone who entered last round. That was a fantastic bunch of poetry to sort through!
Here are the rules for Round 5:
- Create an original song based on the winning poem from @moeknows.
- The song must include the lyrics in the poem, in order.
- Additional lyrics can be added, but all the lyrics in the poem must appear in your song, in order.
- Enter original work and provide your entry in a reply to this post.
- You can still make a post out of your entry, but your post does not count as an entry, only your reply.
- Keep everything kid-friendly and G rated.
- You must enter by midnight this Sunday (CST) in order for your entry to be considered valid.
- By entering, you are giving me full permission to use your entry however I wish.
Singers, songwriters, and rappers out there, now is your chance to have some fun, show off your skills, and possibly earn some STEEM in the process!
You must have indeed had a hard time in selecting the winner @papa-pepper. Many poems were interesting. Steemit is well filled with talent, isn't it?
Congrats @moeknows!! Liked your poem and noticed the depth after really reading it. Some verses are really profound if you dwell. Enjoyed reading it. You must have had a great time writing it. :)
Good luck to all the singers! Can't wait to see what you come out with. Cheers!
Thanks for the REAL COMMENT @sandzat!
Picking a winner is my least favorite part of running contests, but it is a lot of fun nonetheless. I'm looking forward to seeing who joins this round... and who wins!
Wow! Thanks @papa-pepper!! :)
Yes, it is a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to hearing this contest's entries too. :)
Thanks, @sandzat. I did have fun writing it. I really like this idea for the contest. I found it inspiring. I may even start perusing the meme and photo threads on my own. Thanks for your comment.
You ask, the internet will answer haha. Great post.
