The whale who wanted to spray

A little mermaid played beneath the waves

in the harbour of Harlingen

There she discovered a lonely lost whale

who was crying out his heart and saying

'I wish I could spray water so high into the air

that the whole world could see

how will I ever make this dream

become reality?'



The little mermaid wiped his tears and said

'You must believe in the power of Steem

I'll hook you up to the blockchain

and live feed your spray for the world to see'



All around the world people sent their SBD and Steem

so the whale would never feel lonely again

and could now live out his dream

in the harbour of Harlingen

Drawing 'The Whale and the Mermaid'

This morning I was looking through some of the drawings I had started, but not finished, on my drawing desk. One of these pictures featured the shape of a mermaid and a whale. Inspired by the Steem Whale I thought I would finish this watercolour painting with some drawing ink.

Once my drawing was complete I sent some SBD to @whalefountain for a celebratory spray from the whale in the harbour of Harlingen!

So the mermaid is a 'he'?

I think a she, the whale a he -but i'm not an expert on these things and they were both moving a little too fast to check.

A very nice drawing and really beautiful words!

Thanks, that whale was very inspiring!

This really cool, I hope to continue seeing more of your content in the future :)

Awesome, i'm sure i will be making more :D

Ha! That's so cool! Should be some dolphins dancing around it :D

Have you had a play with the steem whale yet?

No! Not yet. Got so much non Steem stuff to sort out on my end unfortunately. It looks like a hoot.
