Beware The Snowager
by hollythexmasplant

You'll know you're near when you feel a chill,
Deep down to your veins, it will make you go still,
When the howling winds whip around mountain tops,
And your hair stands on end like a Meowclops,
You'll see a cave, and know it's near,
But be careful, it can smell your fear,
Then it'll get really hushed, every noise will echo,
You'll have to move lightly, just like a Techo,
And if you're quick and if you're quiet,
You might be able to sneak right by it,
If you succeed, treasure and riches await,
But if you don't, beware your fate,
Because if you wake it, I'd be willing to wager,
You'll never escape the dreaded Snowager!

Malum to Fyora
by spukl1

Tell me before I waltz out of your life
Before turning my back on the past
Forgive my impertinent behaviour
But how long do you think this pantomime can last?

Tell me before I ride off in the sunset
There's one thing I never got clear
How can you claim you're our saviour
When those who oppose you are stepped on,
Or cut up, or simply disappear?

Tell me before you get onto your cloud
Before joining the forgotten brigade
How can one Lupe like me, say,
Alter the time-honoured way the game is played?

Tell me before you get onto your castle
Just what you expect me to do
I don't care what the Faeries say
I'm not in business for them
But to give all my Neopians 
A magical moment or two

Tell me before I seek worthier lands
And thereby restore self-esteem
How can you be so short-sighted
To look never further than this wraith or that 
To have no impossible dream?

Allow me to help you slink off to the brambles 
And mark your adieu with three cheers
But first tell me who'd be delighted
If I said I'd take on the Neopia’s greatest problems
From Sloth to dark magic, no hope of solution
Even if I tried for one hundred years.

The Golden Selket
by fatefulwings

Just came home with the Kacheek of my dreams, 
a sweet Desert boy so shiny he gleams! 
Yet something is amiss, it would sadly seem: 
his petpet doesn't quite match his colour scheme. 

The choice for his companion was perfectly clear: 
a tiny little Selket that he could hold dear! 
As far as bugs go they're really nothing to fear,
though the difference in their palette is quite severe.

The problem of course is a matter of hue, 
since there's faerie, white, mutant and blue. 
Now plain selket is excellent, that's fair and true,
though there's another colour I'd love to view.

I have a small request, if I might be so bold.
Please TNT, add this Selket colour to the old?
I don't mean to be harsh, to bother and scold.
But don't you think they'd look great in gold?

I really want a Kadoatie
by shadowsneak100

I really want a Kadoatie,
Desirable as they are,
The Kadoatie of my dreams
Always seems too far.

I know that it would love me
And I could pet its head,
As we fall asleep at night
Lights on above our bed.

Kadoaties in the Kadotarey
Are not for taking home,
But they seem so sad and hungry,
So I feed them Yurblecones!

If I had my own Kadoatie
It would be a dream come true
But the Kadoatie eludes me
As they are so very few.
And oh, so, so, expensive
In their hue of baby blue.

Oh! If only one could fall
out of the clouds! Just for me!
The happiest Neopian of all,
that would make me be!
Me and my Kadoatie,
A purrrfect family!

An Ode to the Darigan Yooyu
by masonsbackyea

Purple and mean
You make me scream
Stop, Please Stop
You make no sense
You're spiny and rude
Stop, please stop

Just go in the net
You make me regret
Starting this game
Stop, please stop
I want to quit
You make me sick
Oh, the game is over
And yet still
Stop, please stop

Rainbow Pool
by neur0nerd

caterpillars would scoff
at the notion of buying their
metamorphosis
and yet so easily
with the flick of the wrist
(and a million or two neopoints)
we transform our pets
into the extraordinary

growing wings
making kings
baby blue or split in two
for a nominal fee
reach your destiny

come on in-
the water feels lovely

Paradise to the Airax
by georg_666

On a gentle summer day,
a tiny Airax takes its first flight,
Doing cartwheels in the wind,
it sails above, day turns to night.

He rests on a branch for an hour,
Then reaches for the sky with power.
He knows not what he’ looking for,
He just opens his wings and soars!

But soon enthusiasm turns to doubt,
As it seems forever he’s been flying about.
His eagerness just stoops and stoops,
And he wonders, “I was right to have flown the coop?”

But strength soon overcomes him once more,
For look what lies ahead, behold and before!
When he perches back on the arm of his friend,
That is paradise with no end.

In the Grand Battledome
by rossthereddragon

In the grand Battledome,
Where Neopets show their might,
Many warriors call it home,
And put up a good fight.

They can win a fancy item,
Sell them to get rich,
Or a fierce foe might bite em, 
Ouch, just one more stitch.

Healing springs many trips,
Meek and frail you must be,
But listen to these tips,
And you'll do wonderfully.

Train under Captain Threelegs,
Wallet doesn't need to clutch
Not pricey like those Neggs,
Dubloons don't cost that much,.

Once Level 40, go to the Island of Mystery,
Trade in your codestones, the ones asked for,
Listen to Ryshu's wisdom or else you're history,
Balance your stats, choose the courses galore.

The higher your level, they will ask for more,
Once Level 120, only train in Level until two-fifty,
Not fun paying many Eo stones, it's such a chore,
Bee-lining to Ninja school will be more thrifty. 

Paying one red stone is better than 8 yellow,
Instead of 24 hours per course, now it's two,
Now with higher stats, no longer a marshmallow,
Look at the improvement, oh how much you grew.

You also gotta rely on abilities,
Release those faeries that are trapped,
They'll grant you some utilities,
So you can finally be more adept.

Lens Flare and Warlock's Rage stun your foes,
Rejuvenate can fix you up with a full heal,
Burrow to protect yourself from heavy blows,
With these tactics, victory is the real deal. 

A good weapons set should be your goal,
Try use 2 Scrolls of Knowledge, deals many icons,
To heal yourself, use a Greater Healing Scroll,
Now you can go on a Battledome rampage.

Don't forget to fight in the Obelisk war,
You can't win a battle with inaction,
Diligently get more points for your team,
So you can be the pride of your faction.

Without it, our world will be in monochrome,
Thousand of epic battles take place every day,
All in all, we love you grand Battledome,
We appreciate it, I wouldn't want it any other way.

Win or Lose?
by ohheyjewelx

11 pm and the clock is ticking
Preparing my fingers for the midnight clicking
Count von Roo
I’m ready for you

Trekking through Roo Island, the abandoned North
We reach the castle, pacing back and forth
“C’mon, let's leave”, a tug on my sleeve
Win or lose? There’s no time to grieve

In the darkness, his eyes gleam
I look at my pet, trying not to scream
An evil, mocking laughter surrounds us
A sound so chilling, I’m surprised its found us

Awake in the dark
We’re ready to face him
Our chances look slim
But we’re ready to ace him

Roll once, we tie
Roll twice, the die..
We roll, four versus three
We’re filled with so much glee

It’s getting late, we shouldn’t stay
Let’s thank the Count, we start our day
He smiles, points of his teeth showing
His eyes narrow, they’re still glowing

“Run, run, run”, our quest is done
We've gambled, we’ve won!

Illusen the Witch
by sylas23

Gather round my dear Neopians, and listen to a tale,
Of loyalty and then deceit, and how friendships can fail!

My name is Jhudora, and let me tell you all my side,
You see Illusen and I were once unified.

We grew up playing together, learning how to fly,
Had each other's backs, as we flew through the sky.

As time went by and people stared, and made fun of my purple flare,
Illusen distanced herself from me, telling me space was what she needs.

Rumours started, all of them lies,
They called me evil much to my surprise.

Illusen painted herself as great,
Sealing me to my wicked fate!

She whispered untruths to the Faerie Queen, 
So Fyora heralded that I was mean.

The story twisted, and time flew by
When Neopians see me, they run and cry!

But remember I was not always like this,
Careful of who you pick for friendship!

One day I will show the whole world wide,
Ilusen's true colours and they'll be on my side!

Until then, I collect items precious and rare,
So come see me for a quest if you dare!

You know where to find me, on the outskirts of town,
Come visit me on my beautiful cloud!
