THE REASON BEHIND THIS CONTEST:
The 14th of this month makes it exactly the 9th year i lost my dad. He died from accident in 2009. and since then he has always been in my thoughts. i actually wrote a poem for him then though. HE WAS MY HERO, HE WAS MY LEGEND, HE WAS MY BEST FRIEND, HE WAS MY BROTHER, HE WAS MENTOR, HE WAS MY TEACHER, HE WAS MY EVERYTHING.
WHY THIS CONTEST?
I didnt get a chance to celebrate him when he was alive probably because he was always around me, so i didnt know his worth or value not until i lost him. so for my fellow steemians not to make this same mistake. i want you to write a poem about your dad to celebrate him while he is still alive. and if he is dead already, write him a poem to celebrate him and make him know you still remember him. i dropped a post about the incident not long. you can read it here..

@moneyinfant has added your contest to the list Steemit Writing Contests: Issue #45. The list is updated on a daily basis and your contest will remain on the list until its expiration - there's nothing you need to do.
The list was created to save writers the excessive amount of time spent searching through the #contest tag for writing contests. Now they can just come to the list each day, see new contests and use their time doing what they love - writing.
If you'd like to help spread the word about the Steemit Writing Contest List I'd really appreciate a resteem, but it certainly isn't necessary. The project is simply meant to help writers save time and contest creators attract more contestants.
P.S. If you know of any contests I've missed I'd love to hear about them. Thanks!
Hi
Er... I'm curious
Have you announced the winners?
Blessings
I dont know I could touch you heart through my writing but yeah I can write my reality as I lost my dad when I was 1 an 1/2 .😢😢
This idea is great! Simply awesome. Dads? nobody know them. Mums? They are celebrated. Dont get it wrong. Mums do so much. They are nice people. Numerous songs, music, videos, poems and tributes have been made to praise mums. You struggle to find much praise for dads!
So thanks @hurlamideh for this nice opportunity to apppreciate dads! I have not only resteemed this post. I personally told friends to write one.
Here is my poem for my dad: https://steemit.com/contest/@focusnow/celebrating-my-father-meet-the-man-who-made-me-a-man

English only please. ..you can use Google translator for good and correct translating. ..thanks

My poem to my father, for your poetry contest.
