Here is my entry!

Oh yes, I'll absorb his power when I eat some pepper
The right one and not just some random pepper
I don't want him to see me as some lepper
But eating the right one will make me a stepper
And the power will be given by papa-pepper

Now I wish I got some great power
Not just any type of power but some mega Steem Power
So I can boost this post by papa-pepper in an hour
And get it to top the trending posts within an hour

But now I've got just very little power
All I have to do is strive hard within my power
So I'll keep eating some pepper and absorb his power
Then I can boost posts like this within an hour!

Superb write up. You got my upvote. I think i need some pepper so my power can boost your poetry.
Here is mine:
@papa-pepper powers poetry with steem power.

Hahaha.. You got lines too.. You should place your entry.. I'm sure they'd be dope

Surely, I will see to that.

@prechi this is awesome and funny too

😂😂😂@sussan thanks for finding my entry interesting and funny too.. I appreciate.. I just hope I win!

Mega steem power. Lolz

Lol... Yesso mega

congrats! @pipiczech :) here is my poem

The cooking pepper smells nice
My body absorbs the power
I can feel the spice
Success covers me like a shower
I can feel the steem
My mind is higher than a tower
Is this a dream
I am addicted to pepper
I just want to scream
Give me that steemian power!

These sound like great lyrics for a spice girls song ;)

Thanks @papa-pepper You are AWESOME!!!

So are you! Got a poem?

Here's my entry @papa-pepper


That @pipiczech he likes some blue
Picked up his fork n he ate some stew
For while he's hungry for some bar-be-cue
He's got to steem n he's got to write a blog too
But when u eat some pepper and you got steem power
All you got to do is vote yourself up higher
His crocs dont fit, his gun dont fire
Still he said to @papa-pepper "thank you Sire!"

Hello @papa-pepper. I am ready. Ha ha ha. Thank you.

Bring the poems!

my post is here and thanks for reading.

Steemit is tough and hard to heard
Papa Pepper tells us to avoid being sloppy.
We try so hard to not be a copy.
After so much trying there is still no way to separate from the herd.
The only way is to capture his power : a mighty pepper.
The perfect lure is to use extreme heat.
While he is distracted we can use this opportunity to discover
it yet the minute we ingest it, we are mark as a leper.
Now new content is flagged and there is no way to recover.
Lord Pepper tells us there is no way to cheat.
Persistence and quality are the things that make you tough to beat.
This is the lesson now you must rediscover.

Yeah! Coming up with a poem. Great!

This is my first contest entry on steemit ever! :D

I am no steemian expert
But I love the 'absorb his power 'part
So I am steaming some peppers
To acquire some steem later
Hopefully i'll absorb some pepper power
Tap in this whale power
Indulge Papa pepper for a while
And get that minnow wallet to smile.

Good luck to every creative on this timeline :D

nice one ^_^ upvoted

Great competition as always @papa-pepper

Yeah this is my Entry!!


Is king pepper striking like a thunder

He got a raffle round his shoulder

Stopping is enemies from stepping further

He bends a kneel like a ghost rider

He always have a secret agenda

When he holds his folk you know he is about to commit a post murder

I just wish he delegate a steempower to me as a brother.

Here is my entry

divider-1024.png

I'll eat some pepper and absorb his powers
Relax my mind and chill under a bower
I'll drink some steem to increase the power
Life is too short for me not to enjoy for an hour

divider-1024.png

Pepper's power i've devoured
Now i have the superpower
All other obstacles i overpower
I've gat all other contestant cornered and cowered
My blood mixed with pepper and steem and i am no longer a coward.

How many poems can I come up with, @papa-pepper?

That depends on you.

Enter as many as you like!

Sure. Great. Thanks.

HERE'S MY ENTRY POEM. THIS IS MY FIRST ENTRY.

Why should I call you pepper,
You, who have been so kind?
I’d rather just call you Papa
That’s if you won’t mind.

This Steemit, a newer world
I’m so orphaned in the crowd
Embraced you, two noble Steemit thence
Can you adopt me the same?

Shed your power on me, Papa
Enlightening me, of this side of world
Bless me your power, I wander, I’m lost,
The lord above will pay your cost.

Hi papa-pepper!Here is my poem.

In the dark in deep sleep
Someone woked me up in one bleep.
What's happening!What's going on!!??
Then I saw huge red steem near the wall.
In my twilight dream,I could not believe..
I curiously asked..,"are you papa pepper coming into my rem sleep"??!
The answer came quick
As a click
I heard powerful words.."Jan , Eat Some Pepper and Absorb My Powers then you will be a successful steemian and you will win towers!"
And I thought to myself in the morning breeze &wishes
That I value papa words like I value riches.

I got the power,i am no more molecule,
Papa pepper ..you are so cool!!!

Haha great meme ! And lots of awesome entries so far ! I will try to come up with something if I can find the time @papa-pepper , good luck to everyone !!👍👍👍💕

Eat some some pepper and absorb his power.

For it will make us breath fire bombs by the hour

Sizzling hot as ice.

Sweetness as an ice cream cone in mid september.

So please remember

Steemit has made me grow from a minnow to whale.

Once a fingerling without tail.

But now we can wear the crown fade the frown and paint the town.

@pipiczech has given me the inspiration.

He won with a meme now he is my admiration.

50SBD is my target.

So i can break the wall with my poetic mallet.

Soar high slowly slowly, patiently waiting.
Till we are high up and gyrating.

Hi papa -pepper.Here is my second poem entry.

Hey you! pipiczech is calling,
Come cook with me and enjoy it.
I got him in my cage by using my secret weapon,
I got steeming bowl
And hot papa pepper.

Never thought i would get his powers oh oh,
Just look how much now i am empowered yeah yeah,

Hey you! Pipiczech is calling,
Come cook with me and enjoy it.
I will tell you how to absorb his power,
Just eat some hot pepper with big fork
And you will get steemit tower.
Because papa pepper empowers.

Never thought i would get his powers oh oh,
Just look how much now i am empowered yeah yeah..

Success and Cool Peppers

Success on steemit doesn't come overnight
You gotta be resilient or you'll give up your flight
At first it might seem like a get rich quick scheme
But you gotta put in the work to gather the steem

I came for the money and stayed for the community
Cuz no platform shows better support and unity
Papa pepper is cool, an irony to his name
Learn from this steemian to grow in the game

Here is my little poem for the contest


You're on Steemit
Make it hot,
Just a sprinkle,
(Not a lot)
You can fork it
Hold the spoon,
Let it bake and cook it soon
Hold it o'er an open fire
Let the scent fill up the air.
Take it off, it needs to cool,
It's @papa-pepper's home cooked gruel

This poetry super.

Really funny and cool. Here's my entry.

I have thrown the lid off
Now I steem everyday till I nod off
The words speak from inside of me
Like pent-up steams scream free
from a boiling pot of a ravenous cook
Seasoned words spiced from cookbook
But something really hot is missing
I scratch my head thinking
Eureka! how could I have missed pepper?
I smile with glee 'cos I got papa-pepper"
I will absorb his power by eating his whole
Maybe my steemit will ignite like coal
influx of whales caught up in the steam
And that's how to succeed in Steem.

congratulation friend awesome post.please follow me and vote my post.all time I with you. @shiqder

You know papa-pepper?
I look up to him
and wanna absorb his
power,
But i can't express myself
coz his power may
cover,
But fret not
I said,
I just look up to him,
And just like him,
I'm gonna wield my own
power,
Because once a great man said,
In steemit expressing yourself
is way better than the best for new user,

I always enjoy this round of the Wild & Strange contest! Here's a link to my post


Once upon a time not that long ago,
I met this fella that you all now know.
Before he was a steemit household name,
I told @papa-pepper you'll go far mane.
When I was still new I needed guidance,
Papa was there and what he said made sense.
We all have our own paths we have to walk,
I'd call Papa my brother he walks the talk.
When I get down and feel like giving up,
Pour some of that Pepper spice in my cup.
One sure way to be successful is clear,
Just be authentic, don't give into fear.

Thank you for this awesome and strange contest @papa-pepper!


I was very pleased with my victory, and I'm honored that there would be poems based on my meme! I'm looking forward to them, and I'm sure to read them all!

However, I will not participate in this round, because English is not my native language :D

So thank you again @papa-pepper for this opportunity and to all of you for your congratulations!

Congratulations to you, and no need to participate every round! Great job on your win and enjoy the SBD!
