Valentine's Day Special

The Importance of Love and Friendship
by frankie8492

Making neofriends may be hard if that is your aim.
Now you might be wondering, who is to blame?
The issue is that there is often fierce competition,
And for the people with serious ambition,
They like to view everything as a zero sum game.

It could be about trophies and getting high game scores,
Feeding kadoaties or restocking in various stores. 
Maybe it is about winning the beauty contest,
Looking pretty and being the best dressed,
Or even defeating others in the obelisk wars.

However, we must remember, especially on Valentine's day,
That if we want our beloved community to endure and stay,
Then respect and love for each other should never be lost.
Anything else should be secondary and could be tossed,
Because the real treasure is the friends we made along the way.

Love in Neopia
by miraday

Love set Neopia going like a gold watch—
The seconds pass like a red arrow flying
From the bow of a cherub Mynci, caught
In the act. Love requires effort and trying.
The pink holiday seizes the day, locked
In a concept characterized by buying:
Plushies are exchanged like clockwork,
As are chocolate hearts and candies.

Love, still, manifests in Neopian lands.
Love can be servitude, like serving meals
With the Soup Faerie to the needy and
Donating to the Money Tree. If it is real,
Love must be action. Love is the plan
To give your time to those you feel.
Love is checking in with Neofriends—
A quick message can reseal the deal.

Love is most obvious on Valentines Day—
Rose garlands are almost over-decorated,
The pink petpets tirelessly frolic and play,
Weewoos deliver love letters anticipated.
Perhaps we can express this love every day,
An omnipresent love that goes unstated.
A rainbow sprawls across all Neopia today,
And the cherub Mynci leaves us infatuated.

My Pretty Valentine Quiguki
by precious_katuch14

It's Valentine's Day once again,
With everyone out buying presents.
I'd rather not join in
Their mad descent.

Oh, it's all so sickening,
I'd rather eat a Heartatoe.
All this sweet nonsense
Makes me want to up and go.

Chocolates and flowers are outdated,
Even cards with hearts are old hat.
There's nothing I really want today,
Except...perhaps...that.

What's that, you ask?
A Pretty Valentine Quiguki.
Look at that smile on her face.
She's practically calling to me!

A coy green Quiggle
With pink bows on her head,
I see no other Usukis,
Only to her I was led.

A sleek pink dress of hearts,
Matching cute shoes,
I wonder if she's got accessories
Like the other Quigukis do.

I didn't want any more hearts,
But this Quiguki I'll accept.
Her pinkness is just right,
From my rants she's exempt. 

It's Valentine's Day once again,
But I won't spend it alone.
I'll have my Pretty Valentine Quiguki
To keep me company at home!

Key to our Heart
by joyful_neopian

Captor of Neopian hearts, with devotion unrivalled.
A longing to be reunited, a hope for reprisal. 
Admiration for thy spontaneity and respect for unforeseen change. 
Behold thy beauty. Excite thy brain!
Fondly, we reflect on our collective Valentine. 
The apple of Neopia's eye. 
Thou are the one, and certainly one of kind. 
We wait for thee - even after all this time!  
For gone is thee, the quest for the key.

The Teddy Bear Sweetheart Gram: Pure and Adorable Prizes
by _brainchild_

This is for Valentine's Day.

The Teddy Bear Sweetheart Gram, sure to delight,
Is the cutest---no lovelier gram is in sight.
The bear is so adorable; hearts shall enthral!
I spring right off the couch, and I dash toward the mall.

Oh, I must have the items it grants! I'll start with
The sweet garland. It's wonderful---that's not a myth.
Wow, the teddy is precious, and so is the heart!
This gem, named with a pun, is a fine work of art.

There is also a headband. Adorable, it
Surely comforts because it's so soft. Not a fit
Will be thrown, since it's made from faux fur, so hooray!
It's quite kind to the animals on any day.

The LE is the dress. I must have this sweet gown!
Getting gram after gram so mundane, I will frown,
But then I shall get lucky! This item is mine.
Oh, the bow and the pattern are simply divine!

So, this Valentine's Day, if you need something nice
As a treat or a gift, then this gram will entice
You to spend your NC with pure feelings of glee.
I am sure that the teddy is perfect for me.

Valentine Searching
by peacelovebliss

It's the day of pink,
and red and love!
Do you have a valentine?
If you don't, I ask
if you would like to be mine?
It can be hard to find someone
to have fun with on this day
Together, we can share laughs,
exchange cards, and talk or play!
My enthusiasm's really colourful
though I was painted grey
So, please let me know
if you need a buddy today!

a mysterious valentines card
by neur0nerd

"what's this?"
you say excitedly
"a neomail for me?"
enclosed in a pink envelope--
a true mystery!

a big red heart
gives a small clue
and the letter is addressed to you
but a question builds and lingers:
it could only be from who?

you open it and gasp aloud
"i can't believe they'd share
with me a gift so kind and rare!"
as the world around turns pastel pink
and big hearts fill the air

"a theme?! for me?"
you say with joy
a gift better than any toy
if only you could thank the one
behind this thoughtful, loving ploy

but secret cards are only fun
when one deduces just who wrote
so unless in return you don't want one
then next time sign the note!

Happy Valentine's Sway
by flufflepuff

A day with saccharine facade
of love and gaudy greetings odd,
a day where careless paths are trod
shall benefit the Sway.

More cards and messages are sent
than any other time that's spent:
their senders convey all intent,
and never see the Sway.

To intercept a thoughtful card
is almost, but not quite as hard,
as strolling through a flowered yard,
so skillful is the Sway.

Aft every letter's been picked clean,
with no more nuggets to be gleaned,
the Crokabeks move on, unseen.
What, heartless? Not the Sway!

Lovely Valentine Frame
by indulgences

This lovely frame is elegant,
So opulent and pink.
It frames your pet within a heart
That shines with rosy glint.

Some hearts float upwards in the frame.
They’re white and red and plum.
They’re simply coy and marvellous,
As sweet as bubble gum.

Some hearts that are translucent white
Adorn each corner fine.
They decorate this lovely frame.
They scintillate and shine.

And finally, your pet will be
The loveliest of all.
When placed within this rosy frame,
Its image will enthral.

So, happy Valentine’s, my dears,
And celebrate it well!
Perhaps you’ll buy your pets this frame,
And fall under its spell!

Love is contagious
by maroo1324

Today is the perfect day to spread love
to your friends
to your pets
and even to strangers all over the place

You can give a gift
You can send a letter
You don’t need to spend much
Just make people feel better

You can evidence it with gestures
You can show it with words
You just need to seek
Those needing a hug

You could be friends
You could be lovers
Love is for everyone 
And everyone deserves to be loved

If happiness makes you sick
Don’t worry
It will eventually get you
Love is contagious
