Wocky Day Special

Wocky Day Has Come Around
by x__pandora

Wocky Day has come around,
& with this day, the Wockies sound.
All fur, big tail, their smiles appear
Bringing happiness, & feline cheer.

A Wocky may, a wocky might
Bring beauty, & a sheer delight
But definitely, for those that own;
Companionship, a Wocky home.

"Everyone wants to be a cat"
The Wocky is the best of that
For there's nothing better than a Wocky pet
They're for life, you're all set.

So when tucking in your Wocky soon
Under a bright Neopia moon
Remember to be grateful for
All your Wocky gives, and more!

Wicked Wocky Wobble
by parody_ham

He travels to sales all over the town
To see what goods there are to be found
From codestones to plushies he buys them with glee
To hold in his paws on a spending spree 

From twirly fruit common and easy to find
To the rare evil coconut, if you don’t mind
Waiting for items to drop from a branch
Quickly risking an avalanche

Gingerly moving with arms full of stuff
In sock-covered feet he huffs and puffs
Hugging his treasures, he deftly declares
“Ne’er will we part, for that I do swear!”

Carefully tiptoeing with his great stash
Hoping that nary a thief he may clash
Who stare as he passes with two greedy eyes
And greedier paws that often surprise

The red Wocky wobbles with every step
With arms feeling heavy to his house, he schleps 
Protecting the tower of stuff he has left
The things that without, his life is bereft

What's a Wocky?
by windup

A Wocky's a curious cat
(Or a fox? Or a dog? Or a bat?)
With her head framed by fur
Will she yip, bark, or purr?
She's very inviting to pat

But what is she, our little Wocky?
This question's a little bit rocky
Her paws are quite flat
And her belly's quite fat
(Which stops her from getting too cocky)

She's lacking the eyes of the Quiggle
Lutaris have a little more wiggle
With her fur, she can't swim
And the Nimmo's too slim
(Is her family tree just a squiggle?)

For an Aisha, she's got too few ears
And a Gnorbu is begging for shears
The Wocky is brave
(Will she ever behave?)
But her origin is so unclear!

Maybe she was born in Shenkuu
Or came out from the island of Roo
Moltara's too warm
(She'd have to be shorn)
What if she fell from the moon?

(So what is a Wocky? Who knows!)
No matter from where she arose
With a heart full of love
When push comes to shove,
I'll follow wherever she goes!

Little Plushie Wocky

Little Plushie Wocky
How cute are you?
You're pink polka dotty
And plush stripy blue

With a sweet button nose
And eyes, wide and bright
A squishable pose
And smile full of light

On pillow soft paws
You pounce and play
From break of dawn
Til the end of the day

And when it's time to rest
Yours is the best hug
Like a warm blanket
Fluffy and snug

Little Plushie Wocky
How cute you are
You're my stripy, spotty
Adorable star

Greed and the Wocky Thief
by june_scarlet

Her hunger was dying,
the Wocky Thief,
as many a time before.
So she steeled herself, stealing,
the hungry thief,
until she hungered no more.

“It’s not enough,”
heard the Wocky Thief,
a whisper as faint as the snow.
“Let’s try this again,”
heard the Wocky Thief,
“There’s more than just food, you know.”

And there in the street,
saw the Wocky Thief,
one who was wealthy and fed.
A Wocky like herself,
the surprised thief,
but golden and ethereal instead.

“Neopoints,” he told,
the Wocky Thief,
“are what make Neopia go ‘round.”
“Nothing,” he said to,
the naive thief,
“will help you so much when you’re down.”

And she saw in his eyes,
the Wocky Thief,
some kind of hunger too.
And she felt in her heart,
the expanding thief,
a type of hunger new.

She wanted, no needed,
that Wocky Thief,
to have as much wealth as well.
She’d take what was hers,
the needy thief,
only this the new hunger would quell.

“Over there,” he whispered,
to the Wocky Thief,
“a Nimmo with coins to spare.”
And she went to steal,
the sneaky thief,
Neopoints from those unaware.

But it wasn’t enough,
for the Wocky Thief,
and so she continued to steal.
And when she was caught,
the greedy thief,
she was shocked at the reveal.

The Gold Wocky was gone,
but the thief wasn’t alone,
for Greed now lived in her heart.

To post with Wocky pride
Every time you reply!
So if you’re chatting on a Neoboard
Or spending time with your guild
Consider using one of these wocky avatars
To show everyone that wockies have you thrilled!

The easiest avatar to discover
Is all about being undercover
It’s Wocky - Camouflage
Visit a pet that is camouflage painted
That Something Has Happened! will have you elated

The next one is very exciting
It’s about a Wocky who is always inviting;
The Kiosk Wocky could make you rich
(But then again, it’s a bit of a risk)
So hurry, quick!
Grab a scratchcard and start to click
What’s behind the squares is always a surprise
To receive the avatar, you need to win a prize

These next two are all about your pets
With these beautiful colours, you’ll have no regrets
The first avatar is Wocky - Snow Day:
Visit the lookup of your snow pet who’s over 100 days old
The second one leaves you a little grey
Visit the lookup of your pet whose sadness is untold
And Grey Wocky - *sigh* will be yours to behold
Any pet will do - to be a wocky is not an essential
But a new wocky could make your Wocky Day all the more special!

Finally, we have arrived 
At the last avatar I will describe
This one you might call very basic
But it’s all a part of the wocky celebration mosaic
See, this avatar is not locked in the vault
This avatar is simply a default!
It’s simply called Wocky, and on it you’ll find
An adorable blue wocky, who looks happy, and kind

This Wocky Day, no matter what avatar you post with
We hope that the celebrations bring you and your wockies lots of happiness!

The Off-Season For A Wocky
by shadokaty

It’s shining in the early morning glow
A quiet street covered in pristine snow
One Shadow Wocky walks out his front door
Winberto Seliz from Team Altador

He feels the winter wind whip through his fur
Stinging his eyes like a cold saboteur
Briefly he thinks of going back to bed
But the athlete takes off jogging instead

He keeps up the pace through the city blocks
Running past the shops and down the docks
While ignoring the frost the season brings
Winberto’s thoughts turn to saddening things

Why couldn’t his team ever win The Cup?
The sport was invented here, what was up?
All day, every day, he busted his tail
He teammates the same, training without fail

His legs felt like they were dragging boulders
The disappointment weighed on his shoulders
A chill reached his heart, bypassing his coat
He halted mid-stride, a lump in his throat

But before he could abandon his run
He stole a quick glance at the rising sun
The gleaming orb climbing into the sky
Symbol of Altador shining up high

And his thoughts drifted away from the dark
Away from bitterness and to the spark
He saw in the eyes of fans in the stands
When signing their merch and shaking their hands

The losses suddenly seemed far away
Meaningless in the warm light of the day
Thanking the sun for its contribution
Winberto made a firm resolution

“We’ll be the Team of Determination
Since the best prize is fan admiration
And win or lose, we all have a reason
To practice nonstop in The Off-Season”

Guardian of Jelly
by doorknob39

A Wocky stands proud,
Red as a fresh rose bloom,
Watchful eyes enshroud
Preventing imminent doom. 

The Jelly Keeper looks
Over the sweets
Preventing crooks
From stealing the eats. 

Pinks and blues,
Reds and greens,
Jellies of all hues
Make everyone keen. 

What fate may befall
This delicate treasure
Wanted by all
Without measure?

"No more than one
Of these may you take per day!"
Hear this and run
And you might get away!

On this celebration day
For Wockies dear,
A thank you shall we say
For the Jelly Keeper here!

Electric Wocky Run!
by symbolism

Today, the Electric Wocky will run
in a slick streak of icy blue
through the winter sun

Indeed, she knows she was born to stun
with the way she dashes forth on cue
Today, the Electric Wocky will run

in the name of honour but also fun.
If you ask her what else she'll do, 
she's thunder through the winter sun

flash smiles to all, stop for none,
yield for just a hurdle or two.
Today, the Electric Wocky will run

How will you know that she has won?
In her deep eyes, triumph will stew,
an endless blaze in the winter sun.

And when the lengthy day is done,
we will see in her a confidence true.
Today, the Electric Wocky will run
through the blurry winter sun.

Danner of Meridell
by precious_katuch14

A heroic Wocky stands on guard
Watching over Meridell near and far.
The keen eyes of the knights,
Vigilant in dark or light.

A heroic Wocky marches forth
To the south, to the north
Wherever trouble may be found,
No place is out of bounds.

A heroic Wocky draws his bow,
Sniping enemies high and low.
With practised aim swift and true,
A truly brave Wocky of blue.

A heroic Wocky helps the weak,
Even when prospects are bleak.
He protects them from harm,
Ready when they sound the alarm.

A heroic Wocky stands by his friends,
From the beginning to the end,
Throughout the Meridell wars,
From one battle to another.

A heroic Wocky bears courage,
A badge of honor in a chaotic age.
Who is this heroic Wocky
Keeping the peace for you and me?
Who is this war veteran
At the right side of Jeran?
Who carries Meridell's banner?
No other, for sure, than Danner.
