Captain Limebeard's Plea
by firefoxtails

Although a pirate I may be
Me goal ain't stealin' for you see
Fruits 'n veggies I dare drop
A healthy heap o' Chia Pops

Other pirates sure be scurvy
Their stomachs all topsy-turvy
Vitamin C be wha' they need
Watch wha' ye eat I do so plead

Me mum said "ye be wha' ye eat"
I ne'er imagined such a feat
Turns out me Pops contain magic
A new colour ain't so tragic

A Lime Chia I 'ave become
Yer fav'rit danty lil' old chum
But other species need fear not
Only us Chias can be wrought

'N so I end dis humble plea
Feast on yer fav'rits ye be free
But don't forget fruits 'n veggies
I behoove my dear ole pledgee!

Collectable Coins Shopkeeper
by angelbrat916

Neopians are obsessed with collecting!
They just need help with their selecting.
Come visit me, I'll sell you the best.
My shop is better than the rest.

Everyone buys stamps from that old geezer.
But they aren't the real crowd-pleaser.
Sticky pieces of paper that you lick?
This is the hobby so many pick?

Your album needs a nice revamp.
Stop collecting those boring stamps.
Switch to something more sustainable.
Although not really more attainable.

I have coins galore, all different themes.
The corresponding avatars are a dream.
Why don't you bid your stamps adieu?
My coins are all shiny and new.

Not just coins, I have scarabs too.
Plenty of variety just for you.
Coins with books, some with food,
One with Mira, and some with that Sloth dude.

Collecting coins can be your new obsession.
Surely it's mine, this is my confession.
Come to the club, anyone can join.
All you have to do is buy my coins.

Blushing Jhudora
by lynnrules118108

There is such a stamp
Featuring our favourite foe
But how this stamp was made?
We might never know!

For the stamp in question
Shows Jhudora demure
'Blushing Jhudora Stamp'
Is a rare image, I'm sure!

With a delicate pink
Scattered across her cheeks
She gives off a vibe
Like she's shy and meek

With a pretty red bow
Sitting sweet in the corner
The whole stamp might make
You think Jhudora is a yearner

But make no mistake
While this stamp is so sweet
Don't remind Jhudora of it
Or you'll hurt for a week!

Alton, the Potato Farmer
by fivemilliononly

Alton is a Potato Farmer Kacheek in Meridell
He has done this business for decades
He makes sure his harvest is well
In every season, the quality never fades

He lives a simple life everyday
Along with Cyrus, his beloved Turtum Petpet
Growing potatoes day by day
with pride and joy in the harvest he has set

He also hosts a potato counter game
Potatoes laying on the ground for you to count
Each day the number is not the same
Answer it correctly and Neopoints will mount

Unlike his Wocky neighbour that is wild and bold
Nothing needs to be extreme in life
In the world that is often uncertain and cold
Alton finds peace in growing potates, free of strife

It Can’t Be That Hard!
by sierrasiobhan

A game so simple
Deceptive indeed
Beyond expectations
Its difficulty exceeds

Just pop the bubbles
It can't be that hard
My frustration builds
I'm forever scarred

The faerie bubbles av
Is just so dang cute!
Just two thousand points
A few icons to shoot

The light just brings chaos
And the earth bubbles haunt me
For the love of Fyora
Just need one set of three

Maybe one day
I can master this game
For now I'll just pout
And through poems complain

Behind Those Eyes
by dottie27a

My Slorg is my best friend
But I have often wondered
What is going on behind
His large, striking eyes

Sometimes I see him
I can tell he’s thinking hard
His eyes seem to go cross
Like he’s solving mathematical equations

Other times behind his eyes
It seems like a blank slate
Like a tumbleweed may blow by
Like the infinite reaches of space

Still other times I see in him
The boundless, endless joy
His brain is full of happy things
Like sunshine, and flowers, and spring

His eyes are always by my side
Never once has he been mad
Do Slorgs even know what anger is?
His temperament is always rosy

Finally one day I asked him
“My friend, what are your thoughts”
After some time I hear him say
Softly to me….”Slorg.”

Coconut Shy Chronicles
by merionelle

The Deserted Fairground all agree is quite a spooky place to go,
A strange assortment of attractions steeped in misery and woe.
But if you dare then step right up if you fancy yourself a hawk-eye,
And attempt to win a coconut from the infamous Coconut Shy.

The stand is run by Leeroy, a very friendly Quiggle.
He's a snappy dresser, a cheerful fellow with quite a charming giggle.
Only 100 Neopoints to play however there may be a problem
Winning a coconut from him is far easier said than done.

Leeroy himself will of course insist his game is fair for all,
A simple and fun diversion of hitting coconuts with balls.
Alas rumours are spreading fast about one small detail
That he stops you winning coconuts by hammering them in with nails.

Each ball that's thrown he provides you with some very helpful feedback,
Like "You Missed!"and of course "You'll have to do better than that!"
His laughter once was charming but soon after you begin,
You may find yourself now thinking that the joke is wearing thin.

20 throws are all you're allowed but if you have good luck,
You may indeed knock down a coconut that hasn't been properly stuck
Leeroy isn't stupid, as a businessman he's sly
Now you'll tell your friends to play a game at his Coconut Shy.

The Grundo Warehouse
by theguy2020

Found in the Space Station, 
Active since the Grundo liberation,
Now filled with workers both day and night,
Delivering packages and prizes that come at first site!

Get in line and wait your turn,
Patience makes everything quicker you'll soon learn,
Having pride in its efficiency and ability to get things done,
When it comes to delivering codes they are second to none!

Carefully delivering each package with care,
Handled gently as to not cause a scare,
After all customer satisfaction is at an all time high,
Write a review next time you stop by.

From backgrounds to weapons to even wearables, 
Without the Grundo Warehouse we'd have a situation so terrible,
Neopia erupting with chaos and trouble,
The hard working Grundos are what is upholding the bubble!

Make sure you thank them whenever you can,
A key part of this business that needs to be ran,
Often under-appreciated while at work,
Making you happy is often the job's greatest perk!

The Great Neopian Shamrock Disaster
by ski_lola

In Neopia Town one springtime day,
The pets prepared for St. Patrick’s Day.
There were shamrocks, snacks, and clover décor—
And a suspicious Meepit by the door.

A JubJub arrived with a hat too tall,
A Kacheek wore green from head to paw.
A Shoyru bragged, “I’ll find the gold!”
(He’d said the same thing last year, I’m told.)

They followed a rainbow across the land,
With snacks and maps and a marching band.
But when they reached the rainbow’s end…
They found a potato left by a friend.

“Where’s the treasure?” the Shoyru cried.
A Meepit nearby just shrugged and lied.
“Maybe the gold was… uh… moved today?”
(He’d clearly dragged it all away.)

A Cybunny sighed, “Well this is rough.”
But the JubJub said, “The snacks are enough!”

Then suddenly—CLANG! from under the hill,
A giant pot rolled out with a spill.
Gold coins bounced everywhere in sight—
The Meepits had tripped on it mid-heist!

So the pets grabbed coins with laughter loud,
While Meepits vanished into the crowd.
And the Shoyru grinned, pockets stuffed with gold:
“See? I told you my luck would hold!”
