Grey Day Special

Rain and Cheer
by celinedgd

Clouds gathering,
Familiar, frightening,
Yet for some, comforting,
The Grey Faerie sighing.

Rain coming about in Neopia,
This splendid utopia,

Just in time for the celebrations
Of all things grey, companions,
This is a great day to show compassion
Among the sad passion
Of our fellow Neopets,

Today, for them, is as good as it gets.

But never you fear,
For friends with smiles
Always are near,

There's always a little cheer
For rainbow and sun will
Come back here.

Grey Gnorbu's Call
by whale_56

A monochrome warrior
Such a pet am I,
from my blackened mane
to the grey of my eye.

Solemn in nature,
so long as I recall,
so many grey days
and I've seen them all.

Just once a year comes
rejoice and respect,
when it comes to the day
for us grey pets.

We take a moment,
just once a year,
to rescue us all
from sorrow and fear.

And the fight goes on,
No matter the cost,
to rescue the grey pound pets
that are scared or lost.

Treat us well,
I beg you please
for owning a grey pet
is hardly a squeeze.

We may not seem
so easy to own,
but the power of greys
is in our bones.

For what makes us great
no matter our kind,
is personality and love
elsewhere you can't find.

So love us pets
on our special day,
a time to celebrate and love
all our inner grey.

Grey Day!
by bobajfett

Some would call it gloomy
But I would disagree
For rain and snow and haze
Allow me to be me.

For I like it very overcast
The weather is my friend
A Grey Day for me is happiness
It allows me to pretend.

I can hunker down and stay inside
And create a space for me
To imagine and create and certainly read
I am in a state of glee.

So others call it dreary
Or dull and dark and drab
But I am in my element
For on Grey Days I'm not sad!

The Beauty in Grey
by dickies_8o8_gurl

Lush green forests blossom Faerieland,
The rain just cleared, making views so grand.
Magical faeries all take flight,
Through each and every day and night.

Hidden beneath the beauty there,
Lives a single faerie in despair.
Wingless, flightless, appearance is rough,
A depressed Grey Faerie beyond Jhudora’s Bluff.

Teardrops glisten both her eyes,
“I lost my powers,” she quietly cries.
“I’m not beautiful anymore,
I’m not the Faerie you’re looking for.”

A gentle tap, I shake my head.
“I will not believe what you just said.”
“A rainbow paints colours in the sky,
But what came before, you can’t deny.”

“The beauty that came after the storm,
Without the grey, would’ve never been born.”
Her gloomy face with a frown,
Slowly turned upside down.

With her realization, I walked away,
Hoping she’d see the beauty in grey.
For her powers come from her heart,
They were there from the start.

Baelia, the Grey Faerie, we tribute you,
For everything that you can do.
Whenever you feel gloomy and sad,
Think of the talk that we just had.

Grey Day Perspective
by prettyobscure

Sometimes, like the Faerie, it's okay to feel grey
Like every flower needs sunshine
Every rainbow needs a gloomy day

I've seen the Grey Faerie herself smile once or twice
Everything in moderation they say
A few dark clouds for some colour isn't such a bad price

If you find yourself too gloomy and stuck in a hard place
Take a look at the Grey Faerie
With no magic of her own she still finds a way

Take a look at the moon
Without the sun reflecting its light - there'd be only dark
So appreciate that gloom, it'll be gone soon

All the Grey in Neopia
by 1337r3st0ck4

There’s always a dash of grey,
Where ever you look.
You can’t really go astray,
Whether it be a petpet, plushie, or book.

Morning got you down,
How about some Grey Eggs and Bacon?
Gobble up that frown,
A cheeriness inside you’ll waken.

Perhaps a Grey Paint Brush,
For a rather gloomy pet.
Its heart turned to mush,
Oh, it must be upset!

But not everything grey is morose,
Baelia provides so much love.
Find friends and keep them close,
You’ll fit each other like a glove!

Greyt Day Inside
by jewelrunner

The weather is gloomy,
All of Neopia is inside.
Today is not the day
To take a Merry Go Round Ride.

I know a trick
That will make everyone feel merry;
Reminisce about the Tale 
Of Tavi and The Grey Faerie.

Cuddle close to your pets
While you relax by the fire.
Read them Grey Tonu Tales, 
And tablet of the vampire. 

When your pets get restless
From being cooped up, 
Bust out Skeith Board Game
And Baby Aisha Ball-in-u-cup.

Cherish their smiles,
Being together is splendid.
You’ll remember this time fondly,
You’ll wish Grey Day never ended.

Ballad of the Grey Blumaroo
by outlander_

I was once a happy Blumaroo,
I did what we all love to do,
Playing Dice-a-roo,
And Kacheek Seek,
But that all changed,
When my owner sang,
"Come on!
Let's paint you at the Rainbow Pool!"

I was excited!
What new colour would I be?
To tell you the truth,
I was tired of being green.

I imagined being painted Faerie,
I would have beautiful wings!
Or maybe Rainbow,
What fun it would be!

But no,
That wasn't the case,
I was turned Grey.

Fun,
I no longer have,
I am always sad,
I no longer wish to play,
Please,
Leave me be,
And walk away.

I am now a Grey Blumaroo,
I shared my story with you today,
Because after all,
Grey Day.

Grey Cirrus
by indulgences

Its face so wretched, sad and grey,
This dismal Petpet cries.
It lurks within dark thunderstorms
And bitter, downcast skies.

Its eyes are full of gloomy tears.
It's dismal, woebegone.
It's melancholy, desolate,
Its face so drawn and wan.

Its lips are trembling, holding back
Its sobs of misery.
It's hard to turn my back on such
Extreme despondency.

I hold the Cirrus close to me,
And wipe its tears away.
I hug it close, I soothe its fears.
It smiles, though it's still Grey.

I'm glad I chose to comfort it.
Perhaps this Petpet will
Decide that life is full of hope.
Its crying will be stilled.

It's Grey Day, and I hope you all
Treat your Grey Petpets well.
Please hug them every single day.
Their sorrow will be quelled!

Grey Day Makes Me Sad
by mewemy

Everything is sad and meek
It's been a depressing week
All I can see is grey
Today is not my day

Crying all night long
Listening to a sad song
Apathy to the max
I wish I could just relax

The Grey Faerie stopped by
She let out a loud sigh
She tried her best to smile
to see it I’d have to stay awhile

Everything feels so glum 
It’ll be over when grey day is done
For now cuddle up with a book
And relax in a cozy nook
