A Poem about Storytelling
by precious_katuch14

Deep in the Catacombs,
The fire has been lit,
For a contest of words,
Of lore and wit.

The Storyteller welcomes you,
Bids you sit down,
Asks you to come join
The storytellers of renown.

It's simple, really.
Tonight, a new story begins.
New characters, a new twist.
Do you have what it takes to win?

It could be a comedy act,
Or a magical faerie tale.
Perhaps a riveting adventure,
Or a ballad from Brightvale.

Nobody knows till it starts,
What's next for Storytelling.
What new twists and turns
Will your creativity bring?

A hero in trouble?
A secret revealed?
Or Coltzan's lost treasure
Buried in a Meridell field?

Let your mind soar to new heights,
Your creativity to its best.
As you put on your thinking cap
And figure out...what comes next!

Imiya's Dreams
by theguy2020

Dreaming feels really good,
If Imiya could do it all day she definitely would,
Much better than being awake and doing math,
Facing all of the Babaas' wrath!

The questions pile up one by one,
Instead dreaming would be a lot more fun,
Who wants to do work with a lot of numbers?
Imiya would much rather have many uninterrupted slumbers!

The Babaas attack very often,
If she doesn't get any sleep she'll be put into a coffin,
All this math is definitely too much,
That's why she has a game where you can help and be clutch!

Help her sleep by solving these questions,
That is probably my most important suggestion,
It will be for the greater good,
Wouldn't you want to rest as much as you could?

The Kadoatery
by cpssgh1004

A common neopian pastime, 
That is a big favourite of mine,
Is feeding kadoaties in the kadoatery.
Where the petpets are kept only temporary.

Feed 75 and you'll be rewarded with an avatar,
but I've fed about 7000 so far.
Some might wonder why?
It's because of the thrill when I try!

Feeding dried duoroot to Vash,
Or mynci meat pie to Slash.
Nothing brings more joy,
Than to see the kadoaties enjoy!

The way they mew in delight,
Even when they cry in the night,
Feeding kadoaties is the highlight,
Of what I like to do on this website.

Ready to Fight?
by kellyclark1115

Welcome to the exclusive arena,
not everyone is allowed in.
Home to Jetsam Ace and others,
you'll need a strong pet to win.

Beneath that helmet and gear,
the Jetsam Ace was once a space pilot,
one that many feared
for he was quite the threat!

Flying around on his space jet,
he fought against all the evil.
But these days he battles you and me,
his attacks are quite fatal.

People come far and wide,
for the chance to fight.
All in hopes he gives precious nerkmids,
whether its day or night.

Have you done your battles today?
Hurry off to the find him,
this green Jetsam awaits.
Be prepared or your fight will be grim.

Meerouladen and Heermeedjet
by honorrolle

Signature blazing red and goggles clasped tight, one brother Meerca is ready for a fight. 
The other brother, decked in blue, a sharp looking fellow, of the two. 
Notorious allegations from King Coltzan’s court, had them running for the port. 
Under the rule of Malkus Vile no more, the brothers preferred not to cause war. 

Instead however, from turning a-new, the brothers, more trouble they surely got into.
Not overly bright, or studious lawbreakers, the brothers two stole from Kacheek baker. 
Following their noses and confusing the alloy, they snatched Gold Usul Cookie like the Trojan Uni of Troy!

They missed their turn on the way to the bank, and ended up eating croissants de la crank (y)
Kacheek baker not happy, not happy at all, time to call the defenders of the law!
While we’re at it, let’s call number 3 on speed dial, lawyerbot rolls quickly to the bakery with guile.
Lots of Neopians ready to protect their variety of doughnuts, to steal from such a join, takes a lot of guts!

Customer Blumaroo sets a tricky trap, recently extra springy after an afternoon nap,
Judge Hog lingers readily, outside the door, ready to uphold the law by which he swore. 
Meerouladen and Heermeedjet don’t notice a thing, too busy licking icing from Christmas Pudding. 
All it takes is one step from this felon, to trip in the trap, and land on his melon. 

Hooray! The bakery is safe one again, time to indulge on this Meerca Day win!

A Kacheek and the Fall
by darkhound45

Kara was a baby Kacheek.
She loved to play hide-and-seek.
She quickly hid so her mom could count.
Her mom counted to a high amount.

Kara found a spot and whispered “Yipee!”
But then she noticed a very sad tree.
The tree stood outside her window.
The tree was brown and without its glow.

“Mom!” She yelled with all her might.
Her mom came running to this sad sight.
Kara asked about the tree.
“Why’s it brown? It has no gleam!”

Her mom smiled and took her hand.
“Nothing is wrong. I’ll help you understand.”
Her mom explained that Fall had begun.
She also explained how Fall was also fun.

Kara smiled and had no frown.
“You mean the tree won’t always be brown?”
Her mom nodded. “It’s not what it seems.
Eventually the tree will go back to green.”

Kara got up and hugged her mom.
She now felt super calm.
She put a coat over Kara’s sleeves,
As they went outside and played in the leaves.

Untitled
by bittersweet52

The whisper of autumn leaves falling,
　　The feel of the warmth of your hand;
My eyes meet yours and we share a small smile
　　As we walk through the Neopian lands.

In the distance an auctioneer calling,
　　Dizzying jumbles of words.
The goods are stacked up on their gilded tiers.
　　I find it all nearly absurd.

But break through that chaos! Take a deep breath!
　　The crisp air of the season revives.
Hope settles deep in my chest and I think,
　　This is all just a small part of our lives.

Everything passes, and passes 'til death;
　　And death, too, may pass 'fore the end.
I give thanks for the love I am given and shown.
　　I give thanks for you, my friend.

Mipsy of NeoQuest II
by therainbowsheep

Once upon a time, she lived in White River
But the town was quiet; adventure it failed to deliver.
So off she wandered, free-spirited and risky,
I am of course referencing the great wizard Mipspy!

Once she met Rohane, their quests began,
Beating King Terask the ultimate plan.
To achieve this mission, her presence was essential-
Her magic so powerful and full of potential!

Group Direct Damage led to many a win,
Sometimes the team so strong, they could skip the inns!
Throughout the journey, Mipsy was brave and full of flair,
Most notably starting the ship's engines with just a moment to spare!

When we think of great Acaras, we think of this champ,
So heroic, she even has her own stamp!
You can spot her in her signature wizard robe,
Committed to travelling the Neopian globe.

To The Jelly Chia
by nessrs

Does the Jelly Chia feel?
No brain, no heart,
Gelatinous abomination;
Creation sealed its doom.

No eyes, no mouth...
Does the Jelly Chia scream?
Does the Jelly Chia cry?
Are they saccharine tears, 
Like the rest of it,
Born to be consumed?

Unthinking, unfeeling,
An empty vessel, right?
Gelatin, sugar, food dye?
Designed to be digested,
To disappear, to die.

Does the Jelly Chia trust?
Its creator, crazed inventor,
Brought forth an 'Edible Friend'
Could the Jelly Chia love?
...did it get to say "goodbye"?

(Does the Jelly Chia live?
Can its fate be called a life?)

Gooey shadow of a man.
Do you remember the look in his eyes, Jelly Chia?
Do you remember the pain in your heart...
...but what heart has the Jelly Chia?
What mind, what soul?

They say you're evil, Jelly Chia,
But I see what, no, WHO, you are
Not violent villain, but a victim;
It is your fate, not you, that's cruel.

The Shy Faerie
by afrojacks

Deep within the forest,
I saw a tiny chair,
Underneath an oak tree,
A small and pretty faerie, brushing her long hair

She brushed and brushed,
Her long golden strands,
The faerie looked up at me
And hid her eyes behind her hands

"Don't worry shy faerie!" I said
And as I kneeled down
The shy faerie looked up to me
With eyes that were deep brown 

The faerie grabbed my hand and said
"I think you could be my friend"
Together we explored the horizon
It was a day well spend

NTY GLT
by archangel11891

Made a post on the boards tonight
"Check my wishlist, quite a sight!"
Wrote a snappy title too
With a cute emoji to tempt you

Bumping alone is quite the chore
No one's trading, such a bore
Making up words to pass the time
Angry Meerca says "Stay in line!"

Play with customs on DTI
"No more pets though" but I lie
Another dreamie... I click save
Add more wishes, dig my own grave

Checking tradelists - just one more try
Send a neomail, hope they reply
Over offers should be a guarantee
Check response - "NTY, GLT"

Where do Villains Dare
by kittygirl2345

Where o where,
do villains dare,
to take shelter from
Their fare.

In the wild,
to hide from care,
Where o where 
do villain dare.

are they lost?
or are they there.
where o where,
do villains dare

right behind you,
sneak attack!
that is where,
o villains dare.

Magnificent Wings
by hectic_haley

You can see them zip, twirl,
soar, and dive in the sky.
With their large powerful wings,
the Eyrie is one of the most magnificent species in Neopia.

Their magnificent wings carry them,
all throughout Neopia.
Though the Eyrie is partial to Mystery Island,
which is their native land.

While they can walk with their legs,
they are incredible fliers.
It's a sight that everyone should witness,
at least once in their lives.

Who Do I Want to Be?
by shady_layn

As I approach the Rainbow Pool
Watching waters splash up high
I think to myself, empty-handed
Who do I want to be?

Pink and Purple Draiks fly by
Maraquan Koi and Poogles dip
A Christmas Lupe shakes their head, but
Who do I want to be?

The multitude of paintbrushes around Neopia
Give ample chance to change appearance
Desert, Disco, Camo! Glowing!
Who do I want to be?

I glance at my classic Red,
Matching bandana tied around my throat
And I realize that, at the moment, I'm actually just
Happy being me.

Damaged Ummagine
by indulgences

Some person will adore this fruit,
Although it's damaged stuff.
Despite its crusty, ancient husk,
This fruit is good enough!

The inner flesh is sweet and tart.
It's juicy, luscious, ripe.
It's filled with tiny purple seeds.
Your hands and chin you'll wipe!

It drips with syrup, purple-hued,
And glistens like a gem.
Devour every morsel of
This fruit, from flesh to stem!

Ignore its damaged outer looks.
The fruit inside is sweet.
It's brimming with such gorgeous juice.
This tidbit can't be beat!

After all of these Years
by adventureforever_101

Hard to remember that child,
    Tech savvy, excitable, wild,

She went to school and showed everyone this game,

"Cool!" said her friends...until it was "lame".

So she stopped playing for years,
    college, career, and fears,

until I needed a break from the day-to-day,
how RELIEVED I am to see my Blue Lupe!

I can remember the fun I had on this site!
Paintbrushes, cards, colours bright.

After all of these years I came back to play!

Thanks for the memories my lovely Lupe! 

I am here to stay...

I'll love you forever, until the very last day.

Vending Machine Blues
by akasakadreaming

It is our call from outer space,
A forlorn task for a lonely race.
If Neopians only knew what we know
About that lone machine below.

To spread our culture is our joy.
In kindness from an Aisha coy,
You may receive our food or tokens.
Forever free - our vow unbroken.

Neopian palates are yet in fright
Of these new culinary delights.
The special prizes are not the aim,
Yet hope should draw them back again.

They seek out only rarity
And snub the food we find so lovely.
Change takes time, thus we shall wait
Until the food hysteria abates.

We give them out from shore to shore;
Our Nerkmids have one purpose more.
For when dark times are all about,
These precious stars do not go out.

The Meeping of Meepits by Dr. Bruce
by shadoh647

There was a young Meepit who lived on the shore, he'd meep loudly all day and at night he would snore. The Meepit could meep til its vocals were sore, then it could keep on meeping some more.

Who knew a Meepit could meep so much in a day, you can hear them meep from the shore to the bay. Stay away from the Meepits, why you may say, or the meeping of Meepits will keep you away.

Meepits are cute, small and you might think fun, but not a moments peace would be had no not one.
Cause a Meepit will meep till the setting of the sun, and then you'll be glad the meeping is done.

The noise is not over cause they snore like a snarl, they snore so bad they could startle a Grrarl.
If you like Meepits you could give it a whirl, but even the sailors yell "mother of pearl"

Meepits will meep as it's part of their name, they meep at each other like it's some kind of game.
There is more about Meepits that we all find strange, you can't tell the difference cause they all meep the same.

The Meepits live on their island in the sea to the west, that's where they built their Meepit home and large Meepit nest.
So listen to me for my words I don't jest, cause I'm the young Meepit, so I know them best.

Please No More Grundo's House Special
by hockeycabbage

Sitting in the kitchen, 
my Grundo says to me,
I'm super duper hungry,
can we get some takeout please?

I smile and say "Sure thing!
You've been so good today!
Where ya wanna eat this time?"
"Where else? Grundo's Cafe!"

My eye twitches a little,
we ate there just last night!
I don't know why he loves it so,
the smell gives me a fright!

His eyes sparkle with joy,
so I reluctantly agree,
and away I'm dragged to my doom
to eat scrambled aubergine.

Leera Heggle: The Kau's Mundane Chore
by _brainchild_

My name is Leera Heggle; I'm
Lost Desert's sporty Kau.
I play a game that's so divine
And guaranteed to wow.
I play with friends of many hues
Each year in Yooyuball.
These pals are certain to amuse---
They surely will enthral.

Unfortunately, I'm the one
Who plays the boring role.
I'm telling you, it isn't fun
To sit and guard the goal.
While others run and throw the ball,
I stand here oh so bored.
The lone "excitement" that befalls 
Me is when rivals score.

Alas, it really stinks to be
The goalie. I just sit
And twiddle thumbs while, filled with glee,
The others run, spotlit.
My fans cannot even recall
My name, which makes me cry.
The game will never please this Kau
Unless I'm in the light.
