Chomby Day Special

Gentle Giants
by ennyra

There are some gentle giants,
That hail from Tyrannia.
They go by the name of Chombies,
When they were found it caused a mania.

They are at their happiest,
While eating leaves and plants.
Just ask and they'll share with you,
If you'll only give them the chance.

Today is Chomby Day,
So let's celebrate like we know how.
If you bring the fun and games,
I'll bring the drinks and chow.

We'll have plenty of Terry Berries,
And some Cactus Blossoms to spare.
Invite all of your friends,
We need to show how much we care!

Happy Chomby Day!

Zombie Chomby Trick-or-Treat Bag
by precious_katuch14

This Zombie Chomby
Has brains on its mind.
If you open up its head,
What will you find?

Look past the pink brains
See its undead smile.
Its endless surprises
Will entertain you awhile.

A Spooky Usuki or two,
Or Slorg slime trails?
A Pink Spooky Ice Cream,
Or a Jack-O-Lantern Pail?

A dreary Grey Bouquet
For when you're feeling blue,
Or for a leisurely read,
1002 Spells For You!

As with its treats,
Beware the bag's tricks.
You might wind up with 
A zombie's re-re-remix!

A Zombie Chomby bag,
Perfect for Halloween.
But for Chomby Day?
It remains to be seen.

All these creepy gifts,
Gnomes, dolls and plushies.
Yet this bag doesn't give out
Anything with Chombies!

Chomby Belle Outfit
by rurirawr

Who is the Chomby over there?
She dresses up so well!
The charm and grace which she exudes,
Oh what a darling belle!

She wears a floor-length dress of white,
With frills and puffy sleeves. 
Embellished with ribbons purple, 
Which were carefully weaved. 

To shield herself from summer's heat,
The sun hat is a must.
She brings a parasol as well,
To add a dainty touch.

Gloves made of lace cover her paws, 
And pearls sit on her neck. 
The accessories complete her look,
On both the front and back. 

With mascara and eyeshadow, 
Plus cheeks a rosy tint, 
Her makeup is immaculate, 
It makes her fair skin glint.

Baby Chomby
by agedbeauty

There was a Baby Chomby
Who knew no word but "NO"
It didn't matter what you asked
Or where you wanted to go.

Every question that was posed,
Got a quick and angry head shake.
Chocolate? Toys? Her favourite food?
Definitely not, not even for your sake!

Her "no" was said so often,
In such a loud baby voice,
That this Baby Chomby 
Rejected each and every choice.

But we learned a secret,
One that we keep under wrap.
When Baby Chombies cry their "no" -
They really need a nap!

Today is Chomby Day, but 
There's no treat worth keeping,
This Baby Chomby will say no -
So shhh, the baby's sleeping!

The Dream of a Chomby
by querba

Once a little Chomby dreamed
of singing on a grand stage. 
Letting her voice unfold
in the wonderful Tyrannian Concert Hall. 

She practised her tunes and scales,
singing loud and strong. 
She had nothing to fear, 
she knew that on the stage she belonged. 

Her friend would gather round to hear,
her sing her heart out loud. 
Her voice was sweet, unique and clear, 
and everyone felt so very proud. 

Finally the longed day arrived, 
the chance to perform in the Tyrannian Concert Hall. 
She took the stage and sang her heart, 
her melodies echoing from wall to wall. 

The crowd erupted in applause, 
her dream had come true without any pause. 
And though the journey was long and hard,
she knew she had reached her highest reward.

Memories of Chomby and the Fungus Balls
by azn__kiddo

A familiar tune begins to play
As you walk along this late March day.
Inside, a feeling starts to flow
Like an old friend whom you once did know.
As the Chombies and Neopets parade,
You find yourself in retrograde.

Songs from Chomby and the Fungus Balls,
Reminiscent of the Concert Hall
Or the faintest memory of a game
For which the graveyard has its claim,
Create passage to those days gone by
With nostalgic notes and Chomby's cry.

Soul and funk soon fill the air,
Evoking vibrant hues and groovy flair.
A spell spurs you to tap your feet
At the once beloved kitschy beat.
Though such music may have been a phase,
You can't help but miss the good old days.

Although some critics disagree,
These songs hold ample history.
Thus, reflecting on this Chomby Day
Those old melodies are here to stay.
And brought back from the music played
Fond memories shall never fade.

Chomby and the Fungus Balls
by theguy2020

Music is fun for all to listen,
Let me tell you of a band who's lyrics glisten,
They make sure to rock with style,
To see them many travel several miles!

Chomby and the Fungus Balls are known worldwide,
Anyone who tells you otherwise must have lied,
They may be a fan in disguise,
This music group is impossible to despise!

Four of five times a month they bless us with their magic tune,
Hearing them play is truly a valuable boon,
The ticket booth is where you need to go to get a reservation,
Luckily the prices never go up even with inflation!

This band's music is quite groovy,
If you have some spare time it's much better than watching a movie,
Soul and funk are a common theme, 
For many attending one of their concert would be a dream!

In an awesome band called Chomby and the Fungus Balls

He’s always selling out the Tyrannian Concert Hall!

And if you think this Chomby singing isn’t cool enough,
He’s got some pals that’ll make you go, “Woah!”

Who can possibly resist twirling berries with cool afros?

Each spectacular concert is a whirl of colours and hues,
With shocking pinks, yellows, blues, purples, and greens,
Between their awesome music and the electric atmosphere,
It’s no wonder the hall is filled with ecstatic screams!

It’s one of the best ways to celebrate without a doubt
But you better hurry, these tickets sell out quick,
Make a move before everything gets sold out!

CATFB: THE ERAS TOUR
by actiontal

Collab with travel74147

Their sound started out mellow yellow
The Chomby and his Fungus Balls four
Grooving to their deep tracks full of soul
They never knew fans were keeping score 

They cut their next record, cool cats downbeat
The Chomby crooning to crowds screaming more
Fungus Balls singing backup on their ribbon mics 
Onto a bus they rolled out their first world tour 

All across Neopia the little band played
Packed with usuki girls screaming from the floor
They were becoming a beacon of hope at every show
As their fans began preparing for the Maraquan war

All through the war they supported their fans
Singing new songs of hope and bright splendour
Their lyrics resonated and pulled in more love
The passionate words of a lead singing herbivore

This band grew in fame and each member in turn 
Had a hand at writing songs their fans fell for 
Their tickets were selling out wherever they’d go 
Meridell to the Haunted woods to the club next door 

Almost 20 years in, their world sheltered in place
Their tour was cancelled with quite the uproar  
But they needed their fans to be safe you see
They got to writing and promised to be there evermore 

They claimed not a lot going on at the moment
But sent love to fans in the channels they cared for 
When they dropped albums for fans by surprise 
Their new mature sound, an acoustic candour

In unprecedented times their fans shouted with glee 
Still hoping to see all of their songs live once more 
They announced a tour of all music since 2001
Songs passed down, lyrics imported like folklore

A tour would sell out across Neopia in seconds 
So they decided a monthly show would soar 
Yes, a Tyranninan residency would be ideal 
For four round spotted fungi and their dinosaur

Chomby and the Fungus Balls Show
by therainbowsheep

The band with the greatest sound,
And the coolest shows around,
Is Chomby and the Fungus Balls,
Playing at Tyrannia Concert Hall!

Once a week they perform,
And how the crowds swarm!
Filling up the seats,
Bopping to the beat.

Tonight's show is extra special,
The band's taking it to the next level!
For Chomby Day, they sing -
So loud, the stadium rings!

Songs about the gentle herbivores,
Have Neopians dancing on the floor!
Performed in a disco style,
The lead singer sashays down the aisle.

Into the microphone he sings,
Our local Chomby king!
Good music, happy tunes -
The concert is over too soon.

Next year will be just as great,
Already way eagerly await!
Happy Chomby Day to Tyrannia's best:
Chomby and the Fungus Ball's guests!

The Plushie Chomby
by roxanna203

He sat on a shelf collecting dust, 
Never really being able to adjust,
To his new home called the Pound,
Where there were many lying around.

He thought, "No one would pick me,
For I am just a Plushie Chomby."
Little threads becoming unravel, 
From his different homes of travel.

Worn out expressing little delight,
Almost losing the hope not in sight.
But soon a sweet, delicate voice,
Filled the room, "I made my choice!"

Unaware, this tiny, wide-eyed girl,
Would become his whole wide world.
She picked him up, blowing the dust,
With one big hug, an instant trust.

Not only did she become his family,
She became his best friend, happily.
Having adventures and exploring land,
This Plushie Chomby became quite grand.

Admiral Blackbeard
by coconut_rat

Come one, come all, come down to the Food Club,
Where pirates compete to see who can eat the most grub.
One swashbuckler stands out from the rest:
A Chomby who wears a red coat and white vest.

Unlike most pirates of disrepute,
He likes his vegetables and fruits.
So if those are part of the contest today,
You know on whose side you should play.

But if the competition includes any dairy,
Of milk, cheese, or butter you must be wary!
If his allergies are on the menu, don't bet a lot of cash,
Since any dairy will cause this Chomby to break out with a rash.

Look! The competition is about to begin,
Everyone is here, hoping their picks win.
The odds have been set, it's time to go.
Who will come out on top? Nobody knows!

Go! The pirates stuffed their face, dish after dish.
One Neopet emerged victorious at the finish.
The onlookers cheered and jeered,
For they had bet on Admiral Blackbeard

Chomby Gnome Making Kit
by pixie_tea

Want to spruce up your garden for Chomby Day?
Gnomes can be a great addition to your garden and I'll show you... come this way.
Here is a Chomby Gnome Making Kit,
I'll tell you more about it, please come sit.

This kit says that your Neopet will be kept amused for hours making their very own gnome,
And gnomes have always kept a reputation for bringing good luck to the home.
Seeing that you would like to build your very own gnome with your pet,
I'll gift this kit to you now since you won the Poogle Racing bet.

You take the kit home,
And your pet is thrilled to open the box right away to create the gnome.
But as your pet plays with this item without getting a chance to build it,
You learn a true Neopia fact: This item when played with can randomly give you a Yellow Chomby Gnome--- what pure wit!

Royal Chomby
by bittersweet52

On a high plateau full of bones and rock
These gentle giants rule with grace
Feathers and furs adorn their crowns
Falling elegantly around the face

And what a face on this royal pair
With their wide, kind eyes and soft, sweet smile
Their honest joy in the world all around
Make you want to stop and stay a while

And that too is how they came to rule
Without dispute and without a fuss
They connect with others heart to heart
And work hard to maintain that mutual trust

On Chomby Day let's pay our respects
To our lilac queen and slate blue king
Let it be shown that peace can prevail
As we raise our voices their praises to sing

My Little Jelly Chomby
by melncholy

My little Jelly Chomby
is really just too small.
He sticks to everything and 
runs into jelly balls.

They grow up oh so fast
is what they always say.
But not fast enough does he grow 
when it's my turn to play.

I wish that he were bigger!
I want him to eat more.
There's no other way for me to beat
the gold trophy high score!

I'll have him eat a pink blob,
Then he'll munch a bit of red.
A big ol' bite of yellow jelly
Then he should stay ahead. 

When he's had a lot to eat
there's nothing he can't consume. 
My little Chomby will be the best
at Jelly Blobs of Doom!

How to Fold an Origami Chomby
by swordlilly

Take a square piece of paper
And fold it diagonally in half,
Making two triangles,
Two sides of a laugh.

Deepen the crease, then unfold.
Now fold in both edges
Till they meet the centre crease:
Two adjacent triangular wedges.

Create a new crease by folding up
The lower-left side like a clover.
After it meets the two triangles,
Unfold and flip the paper over. 

Now fold the top down so it meets
The crossing of the two creases.
Then flip again and fold out the corners
To make a diamond and two quad pieces.

Flip again and raise the top flap,
Making a narrow triangle at the top.
Fold the bottom up so its tip
Is just below the upper triangle, then stop.

Turn the paper over again and fold
The inner flaps outward, as far
As they go while staying flat,
Like shards of a many-pointed star.

Swing down the back flap, and start
To pleat the top of the shape.
Then flip and pleat the bottom.
Fold lengthwise to form the Chomby's nape.

Fold down the top to create his head.
And now let him stand:
A Chomby tall and scaly,
Reigning over a paper land.

Nakalele, the Maraquan Chomby
by patter_paws

Far out in the open sea,
An Island sight approaches me.
Verdant and shining in the setting sun-
I think I'll go there to have some fun!

First, I explore the sandy beach.
So many shells within my reach!
Then, I walk to a rockier shore-
What surprises does it have in store?

The waves crash heavily, hinting of danger.
The shapes of the rocks grow stranger and stranger...
They seem to be carved with artistic intention!
Could they be some creature's invention?

Suddenly I come to an enormous rock,
standing tall and proud, it comes as a shock!
A perfect heart is carved into its side,
The sun reflecting through the descending tide.

I cast my eyes about, looking for a clue.
When out in the water, shiny and blue,
I spy a green form swimming around,
Making a musical, melodious sound.

I sit and listen to the beautiful song.
Perched on the beach, The shadows grown long.
The sun's almost set, with night drawing near.
I decide to answer the song loud and clear.

The creature comes closer, bringing a gift!
wrapped tenderly in seagrass, she sets it adrift.
It floats to me, and I carefully unwrap
A heart shape stone resting in my lap.

The creature surfaces, and for the first time I see
a Maraquan Chomby looking back at me.
Nakalele, she tells me is her name,
And she is so very glad I came.

She loves to share her beautiful Island home,
And hopes I will remember her, wherever I roam.
As a parting gift, she tells me to watch
A nearby rock formation now that it's getting dark.

She takes a deep breath, and then a deep dive
I hold my breath, curious what she has to hide.
Then suddenly water erupts with a force strong and mean!
The most glorious blowhole I've ever seen!

The last of the sunset makes the drops glisten and shimmer.
But I must go now, I'm late for dinner!
I wave to my friend and sing a parting song,
I hope to return before too long.

C is for Chomby
by jotagui

Calm and collected, the Chomby roams,
Contented munching on leaves and stems,
Craving cactus blooms and Terry Berries,
Creating a world of wonder, no worries.

Cleverly hidden in Tyrannia's land,
Carved in stone, a prehistoric strand,
Concealed from sight, beyond the surface,
Chomby's grace, a magnificent purpose.

Casting a shadow, like a gentle cloud,
Climbing hills, never to be bowed,
Carefully wandering, never to be seen,
Chomby's presence, a sight serene.

Concluding this ode, let's all agree,
Chomby's essence exudes tranquillity,
Caring for the land with a quiet decree,
Captivating all who chance to see.

Jelly Blobs in Flight, Gelatine Delights
by whitefriar

Sliding ‘round on slippy ground the Chomby finds his way,
To tasty gelatine delights but then to his dismay…

BLOOP! He has been swallowed whole and carried off the map,
But try again for another round, he must find his way back,

For jelly blobs are tasty things, not full of dank or doom,
They leave you craving more of them when you’re in the same room,

His good friends often laugh at him, “Jelly world ‘ain’t real!
And jelly blobs they don’t exist” but Chomby knows the deal,

To find the mystery land all you must do is close your eyes,
Turn around three times chanting “I’ve jelly on my mind,

Jelly is the best, jelly makes me feel alive”
Then take a peek and find that Jelly World in your sight,

So Chomby tries again to eat the biggest blob he can,
Whilst scampering from those that might just squish him into jam.

Admiral Blackbeard, the Chomby Pirate
by vanillastar12

There once was a pirate named Blackbeard,
On Krawk Island, his belly was revered.
He competed with pride,
And won by a landslide,
Each time in Food Club he appeared.

Pirate hat and sword swinging by his side,
The Admiral swaggered in with deep pride.
As he ate through the feast,
And his tummy increased,
So too his legend spread far and wide. 

There was only one thing he could not eat,
Just one thing which might lead to defeat.
It was dairy, alas,
It gave him such bad gas,
And sometimes knocked him off of the top seat.

But despite his dairy problem and all,
The stubborn Chomby would not fall.
He was a fierce foe,
Hard to overthrow,
He clutched at his belly and stood tall. 

From slushies to fish pie to negg stew,
Blackbeard continued to chomp and to chew.
His belly would bloat,
But still he could gloat,
For victory was once again in clear view.

At this, the other pirates shook their heads,
They watched as he munch on with dread.
They all knew he was king,
Of the whole eating thing,
And bowed their heads down low instead.

Faerie Chombies: Such Fabulous Friends
by _brainchild_

The Faerie Chombies, elegant,
Shall fly with grace. They're surely sent
By sweet Fyora, queen of all.
The matching lavender enthrals!

The faerie dust so grand shall dance—
Produced by wings, it will entrance.
Its rosy sparkle, so divine,
Is worthy of a royal shrine.

The wings, like those of butterflies,
Are lovely treats to any eyes.
The shape is very whimsical;
The emerald hue is beautiful.

Of Chombies living everywhere,
The purple ones are much more fair
Than other colours, very dull,
Which fall quite short of wonderful.

A Feast Fit for a Chomby
by _cherry_kisses_

Bring out the food—it’s Chomby Day!
We’ll laugh and munch and twirl and play.

We’ll snack on bowls of Terry Berries.
We love fruit that makes us feel merry!

With colours so vibrant and a taste so sweet,
they really are our favourite treat.

We’ll also devour Cactus Blossoms.
Their blooms taste like raspberries—awesome!

Though these can be slightly fickle,
if you’re careful, you can avoid the prickles.

We’ll have heaps of fruit and berries galore,
and we’ll just keep eating more and more.

And then when it comes to the end of day,
we’ll all give our full stomachs a pat and say,

“Fun and good food help keep away sorrow.
So let’s all do this again tomorrow!”

Chomby and the Fungus Balls
by staggpub

I love to see a movie
I love to read a book
But the best time of all, is at the Concert Hall
So head over and take a look

You will find my favourite performers
Appearing upon the stage
Headlining are "Chomby and the Fungus Balls"
They are honestly all the rage

No need to find him scary
The lead singer is really quite shy
But once you get to know him
You will find a totally likeable guy

They only perform 4 or 5 times per month
So a ticket is difficult to buy
But the swag is great, as you leave the gate
You will be sad to say good bye

Sweet Tooth Chomby Outfit
by indulgences

This candy outfit is the best!
It’s oh-so-sweet and coy!
It’s made of candy pieces, and
It’s full of so much joy!

The Wig that’s worn atop the head
Is pinkest candy floss.
A lollipop pins back the bangs,
So bright with coloured gloss!

The Scarf that’s worn around the neck
Is lovely candy beads.
It looks like appetizing stuff,
And smells divine, indeed!

The Dress is quite a gorgeous mix
Of different candy types.
The skirt is cotton candy, while
The top is tart and bright!

And finally, we have the Shoes
Topped with whipped cream and fruit.
They’re made of purple jelly, and
They grace each Chomby foot!

The Sweet Tooth Chomby is a thing
Of absolute delight!
It looks so rich and heavenly,
A sweet, delightful sight!

Where the beats are wild and the music enthralls,
There's a band that stands above them all -

As the Fungus Balls groove, all around,
Their music speaks a language of its own,
A fusion of funk, rock, and other tones.

Feel the beat, and let yourself run,
Chomby and the Fungus Balls await,
To share their magic, and celebrate!
