Shoyru Day Special

A Red Shoyru
by anonymous

A small red spark
No bigger than your palm
Fueled by an oasis 
Ringed by sandy struggles 

A small red horn
Two great sturdy wings 
Fueled joys
Diverse as stone 

How could it be known 

The pool 
The desert
With wind and years 
And copious tears 

One multiplies.
One weathers. 

As sand digs into hair and nails
No time for shade, no rest: travails
Have hid haven of old. 

How could it be known 

From a small red spark
Despite the modest pool 

How could it be known 

You would become 
The small red spark 
In our hearts

The Dashing Wesley Clearheart
by precious_katuch14

He sails Neopia's seas,
A handsome Shoyru is he.
The dashing Wesley Clearheart, 
The nicest pirate in these parts.

Whenever someone is lost,
Upon tempestuous waves tossed,
He sets out for a rescue,
With his ship and courage true.

And when he faces pirates
Out for plunder, you can bet
That Wesley's on their case,
To confound all their ways.

Unafraid and undeterred,
Wesley draws his sword,
Against Long John Kiko,
Against misery and woe.

Just look at his smile!
Gleaming for miles and miles,
Letting Krawk Island know
He'll always be their hero.

He sails Neopia's seas,
Wesley Clearheart is he.
A Shoyru blue as the sea,
Looking out for you and me.

The Joy of Shoyru
by flusia

The majestic Shoyru
Brings a smile to any face.
It soars through the sky
With such beauty and grace.

The Shoyru truly loves to fly,
A show of natural art.
It likes to keep its wings
As open as its heart.

The Shoyru cannot always
Spend its time up in the air.
It must sometimes rest upon the ground
And use its tail for balance there.

The Shoyru typically stands
With its head turned to one side.
This stance certainly makes it look
Like it only has one eye.

The Shoyru seems mysterious,
But truly, they are kind.
Spend some time with one today
And a new friend you will find!

A Concert on Shoyru Day!
by stefsea

Today is a day Neopians gather in glee,
To celebrate the Shoyru, friend to you & me!
We meet in Tyrannia at the Concert Hall,
Yes Boy Ice-Cream is about to enthral!

This funky Shoyru band takes the stage by storm,
Cool techno beats threaten to cause a swarm!
No wonder these Shoyrus are a household name,
Their epic performance is deserving of fame!

In three different colours: yellow, blue and red,
These Shoyru sensations will easily turn a head!
Dance moves on point and outfits that wow,
Yes Boy Ice-Cream ends the night with a bow!

On the way out the door there is merch to be had,
A young Shoyru begs, “Can we buy this, dad?!”
Smiles on all the faces, this day was a blast,
Memories of this Shoyru Day will surely last!

Neopia's Top Shoyru Band
by frankie8492

One of the best music groups is Yes Boy Ice-Cream, 
And to many people, watching them live is their dream. 
They often perform at the Tyrannian Concert Hall, 
But tickets always sell out, as far as anyone can recall. 
That's why getting in will be harder than it may seem. 

The trick is to find out which days they will be performing, 
In order to get in line for tickets early in the morning. 
They have concerts on the twelfth, nineteenth, and twenty-sixth, 
And this is always the same, because the schedule is fixed. 
The concert will be worth it, even if the wait is boring.

The Shoyrus in the band can perform for hours non-stop, 
And their songs are all fan favorites as soon as they drop. 
After the show, if they're in the mood, they may take photos, 
Chat, give autographs or even some free promos. 
There's also some great merchandise to buy at the gift shop.

The Most Popular Neopets
by shutianlei3333

Shoyrus are cute and lots of fun,
And that's why everyone wants one.
They're at the top of the popularity chart,
Because they love to play and are very smart.

They enjoy flying day and night,
And never get tired when in flight.
They also like throwing a ball around,
Whether it's in the sky or on the ground.

They're very social and have lots of friends,
That they spend time with on the weekends.
They're always happy and cheery.
You'll almost never see them teary.

Be careful though, they have a temper,
And if you're mean, they'll remember.
So be the good person that they desire,
Or else you'll find yourself set on fire!

Happy Shoyru Day!

Shoyru Fun
by hmmdotcom

Flying Shoyru in the Sky,
You are the apple of my eye.
Your skin is smooth, you have two legs,
I bet you even hatch from eggs!

Your friendly face gives me a smile,
I hope you'll play with me a while,
You're very good at guess the card,
And any games of that regard.

We have fun throughout all Neopia,
With never a dull moment or idea.
And I'll save up all my Neopoints,
To paint you a colour that won't disappoint!

There are so many colours from to choose,
From any of them I couldn't lose!
I think I'll paint you Starry Night,
And I'll have played a day done right.

The Valiant Shoyru Who Saves Troubled Jubjubs
by _brainchild_

The Jubjubs, falling to their fate,
Are so unhappy. As of late,
I have to save my coral friends
By blowing bubbles to no end!

Myself, a Mara Shoyru, will
Be perfect for the nonstop drill
Of saving Jubs---they land with ease.
My efforts, fine, are sure to please.

This may be tiring, but I do
This job to save the Jubjub crew.
Occasional Dubloons are nice,
A prize which surely will entice.

I make sure shells don't hit me on
My head---of pain I'm not too fond.
The pace picks up, but I prevail.
The Jubs are safe---I will not fail.

This Shoyru is the saviour of
Maraqua's sweet and cute Jubjubs.
This is my job, which I don't mind,
Since helping friends is being kind.

Shoyru Archer
by parody_ham

Eyes in the Skies
Is the Shoyru swift!
With bow all aglow
His arrow cuts the rift! 

Feel the draft from his shaft
As it jets from his hands—
The point strikes a bullseye
Wherever it lands!

Watching the glade unafraid
Guards an ally of the fae
As he soars verdant treetops
Near Meridell today!

Through two tours of war
Illusen stayed steadfast,
For with her stood a Shoyru 
That was always sure to last. 

Archer Shoyru, archer true,
Protected Illusen from strife.
Never once questioned if
He’d protect her with his life.

Burnt Shadow Shoyru Grilled Sandwich
by indulgences

Oh goodness, what befell this treat?
It was quite over-grilled!
This grilled cheese sandwich smells so scorched,
And needs to be quite chilled!

Perhaps the crust can be scraped off.
Or should it be quite black?
The Shadow Shoyru’s also dark…
Of blackness, there’s no lack.

The cheese looks fine to eat, I think.
It’s dripping, and smells good.
But since the thing is overcooked,
I don’t know that I should.

I watch the wisps of smoke curl up.
They’re ominous and grey.
Perhaps I shouldn’t eat this thing.
It fills me with dismay.

But I would hate to waste my food.
I take a tiny bite.
I chew with modest terror, and
I swallow with some fright.

The grilled cheese sandwich is delish!
I had no need for fear!
I wolf the sandwich down, and grin.
I’m full of cheese and cheer!
