MEERCA DAY SPECIAL

Salute To Meercas
by _brynhildur_

Blurs of energy, Meercas
Can’t possibly bounce higher.
Whoa, they just did...
Their long tails are so vivid.

Fun and cheerful Meercas,
Making friends with all they meet,
They dash across the world,
Their tails in bright whirls.

Hungry, happy Meercas,
Eating whatever they get,
Not picky so long as there’s friends
To make a meal happy at day’s end.

Here’s to you, Meercas,
The jolly ones we all love.
May you bounce forevermore,
You sweet things we adore!

The Crumpetmonger
by Blessed_faerie

My favorite Meerca lives in Neovia;
She's a Meerca who bakes like no other.
Most people call her The Crumpetmonger,
Because she always smells like butter.

Every morning she jumps out of bed
And lands on her tail instead of her feet.
She flies through the air toward the wardrobe,
Where she lands, nice and neat. 

The Crumpetmonger tosses on her apron
And ties it in back with a big white bow.
On go the shoes and she hops to the kitchen,
Ready to start rolling the day's dough.

After so much kneading and mixing,
Out of the oven emerges a great smell.
Tarts, tortes, puddings, and pies,
She bakes them all so well. 

She's known for her crumpets,
But I much prefer her quiche.
I recommend you visit her shop
And make sure to try one of each.

Let's celebrate The Crumpetmonger
In the most delicious way.
This year, head to her bakery
And eat a pastry on Meerca Day.

A Meerca's Chase
by Dr_tomoe

"Where is my Fish Negg?"
the Meerca exclaimed 
as he looked around, wondering
who was to blame.

It was nowhere in sight,
and so, with great haste,
the Meerca started looking
and started a Meerca's chase.

He found Yellow Neggs,
happy and mellow,
a great many of them --
almost too many to swallow.

The Red Neggs he disliked,
for they were spicy and bitter,
and encountering them just 
made him want to be a quitter.

The Super Neggs told him
to check behind hedges,
although he found it easy
for his tail to get wedged in.

A sea of gnashing and growling
Ferocious Neggs soon appeared,
moving and biting away
all he held dear.

And Rainbow Neggs soon said
that his chase was at an end,
for a Fish Negg was found
just right around the bend.

And soon they were reunited,
Negg and Meerca were whole,
until he lost the game
sliding into the gravity hole.

The Dutiful Meerca Maid
by Sugarypixiestix2

Her morning starts before the sun rises,
since her day is always full of surprises.
Cleaning is a life's passion and her job,
not even caring that she works for a snob.

The Meerca maid makes breakfast every day,
for her mistress on a bright silver tray.
With a smile on her face, she sets it down
so carefully you'd think it was a crown.

Afterward, she begins her daily dusting,
also making very sure nothing is rusting.
Scrubbing floors with speed and grace
so they shine like a new porcelain vase.

All day she cleans from top to bottom,
even raking all the leaves in autumn.
Meercas may be small but they're fast,
which helps when mopping a home so vast.

She keeps the house clean as a whistle
and as sharp as a garden full of thistle.
Her duties as a maid are never-ending,
but she's happy to be the one tending.

Chuffer Bob
by Shadowbird97

I play a two and he plays a three,
The jolly old Meerca smiles with glee.
I let him slide and I play two fours,
“Cheat!” he yells in a ferocious roar.

I turn the cards over to his face,
Two fours they are, to his disgrace.
He takes the cards and, to my surprise,
Brings out a stack of Beef Stew Pies.

I wait for him to finish his snack
As he gives his big belly a whack,
Switches a notch on his brown belt,
And gobbles down a Chokato Melt.

Back to the game we turn our minds,
I play three sixes ‘cause I’m behind.
He lets me slide and plays a five,
I say “Cheat!” and do the jive.

He grunts before he takes the cards,
Accepting his fate, spirit unmarred.
Ol’ Chuffer Bob lives up to his name
And inhales a burger in the game.

The “Official Food Taster” chews,
Then motions for me to continue.
I throw an Ace as my final play,
He says “Cheat!” but it’s too late.

I’ve won the round and the game!
The Meerca frowns but doesn’t flame,
Instead he cuddles his Snorkle, Beefy,
Proceeding to feed him one green pea.

“Happy Meerca Day!” he says to me,
We go on a hugging and dancing spree.
Then I give him a cake in a fancy box,
He eats the entire thing without stop!

Fish Negg Meerca Costume
by Tryan15

Oh look, it's Blumaroo Day...
Wait, that went in a flash!
Up next is Brightvale Day,
That, too, left in a dash!

The next consists of Meercas, I'll bet!
Don't let this chance pass by
To spend time with your 'pet!
No time to waste? I got just the thing, aye!

Here, take this costume!
What is this, you ask?
Only the latest fashion, I presume!
A Fish Negg costume, 
Complete without a mask!

No time to spend with your 'pet?
Too busy restocking at the Magic Shop?
No need to fret,
This will make 'em laugh 'til they drop!

This costume is just great
For busy people like you,
Can't celebrate holidays -- always too late?
Have the next best thing, 
Like this costume that's blue!

With this costume, they can feel the joy
Of Meerca Day without pestering you,
Happy and contented with a wonderful "toy,"
I'd be silent, too, if only I knew!

Your 'pet will be so glad
To receive such a fun item from you,
The latest (hopefully) fad;
Who wouldn't? It's blue!

Meerca Day would be so much fun
In your very own Fish Negg suit,
Feel like a real Meerca and run,
Your 'pets will look so cute!

Beware, though, of the Meerca
Who might mistake your 'pet as the real deal!
Better not run around in the bazaar,
You're worth 50 points in Meerca Chase
And they'll chase you with zeal!

Be an awesome Fish Negg with this suit, and celebrate Meerca Day with this iconic costume!

Happy Meerca Day!

The Trickster Meerca
by Pifflish

The Meerca is a trickster 
Who bounces on his tail;
Though many want to catch him,
They have tried to no avail.

He steals their Meerca cookies
And he loots their Meerca pies;
If they're not watching closely,
He'll take all before their eyes.

The Meerca never wonders
If it's wrong or if it's right,
He simply knows it is his job
To thieve things in the night.

So, hide your golden jewelry
And your humble teddy bear,
The Meerca will swipe anything --
The Meerca doesn't care.

For the Meerca is a trickster
Who bounces on his tail,
And if you've listened closely,
Then you'll know who took your mail!

Meuka Needs Love, Too
by Rowanturner

Slithering slimily all through the forest,
Meuka searches for someone to play
A game of hide-and-seek with him
On this lovely Meerca Day.

No one comes to greet Meuka;
The other 'pets just run in fear.
They all wish he would hide away
or simply disappear.

Perhaps the Meerca is thought of unfairly;
Maybe he just wants a friend.
Besides, he's snotty to other 'pets
Only very rarely!

Meercas Love Neggs
by Nikitafernandes

This silly little Meerca I know,
Who collects Neggs everyday,
I asked him if I could take one,
And he just shouted out, "Nay."

He kept Neggs in his garden,
He kept them on his shelf,
He even kept some in his bathtub
To admire when he bathed himself.

So, one day, his feet were hurting
From walking and the Negg burden he bore,
"I need to buy a handcart," he said
And he wondered why he hadn't before.

The road was long and winding
And he had a very long way to go,
But soon a carriage came along
And his feet were numb with the snow.

So, he stopped the carriage for a lift,
"Give me a Negg for a ride back,"
The coachman said.
The Meerca shook his head
And shuffled away with his Negg sack.
Yes, Meercas love Neggs.

Please Don't, Not On Meerca Day
by Indulgences

Oh, please don't eat the Meerca Pie.
It's made from some poor 'pet.
Please seek another pastry, dear,
Some cake you won't regret!

Two tiny ears atop this pie
Are baked so sadly brown.
Don't cut a slice, or look inside.
You'll find a tiny frown!

If you are looking for a snack,
Some sweet treat to devour,
A Meerca Cookie should suffice.
It's made of yeast and flour!

A gummy Meerca's tasty, too.
A Meerca Sundae rocks.
The Meerca Sushi hits the spot.
It knocks off both my socks!

The Meercas' day is here at last!
Refrain from eating pie!
No matter what your appetite,
No 'pet should have to die!
