Usul Day Special

Usul Skiing Season in Style
by chai7705

The temperature's dropping, the weather is chilly
A perfect day on Terror Mountain
And in Happy Valley, a place that's so hilly
Is where Neopians got done countin'

Down to this day, in month of Storing
The twenty-seventh, to be most precise
Why? You may ask, curious, imploring
Well, it's a day so lovely and nice!

It's Usul Day, so of course it would be
All perfect and snowy and great
And on those white slopes is where you will see
No snowboard, no sledding, nor skates!

For Usul Skiing Season begins on this morn'
So if you are lacking some gear
Head to that faboo Neopet with a horn
In Uni's Clothing Shop, it's all here!

Usul Ski Goggles, Mittens, and Poles
Cute pink Ear Warmers in pairs
With Usul Ski Suit, the set's whole
And some grey Usul Skis are right there!

The Magical Bookshop might need a stop
If you are a newbie to this
"Usul Skiing Tips" is the book in this shop
That you surely won't want to miss

At last! We're ready to head to the slopes
And start this Usul Day off right
But even if it's late, you don't need to mope
We can ski all morning and night!

Those fluffy Usuls, so elegant and quick
Are experts at this winter sport
No matter the time, they'll show off some tricks
Of all different kinds and sorts!

When the day is done, we can huddle inside
By a fireplace, coziest place to be
And reminisce in bliss with smile and sigh
Thinking, "Usul Day is the best time to ski!"

Ode to Usul
by gloomyneo

Fluffy tail
Tiny toes
Shining eyes
And a cute pink nose

Oh, to be an Usul!
Small and furry
Ribbons are always in style
So no need to worry

A living doll
Who wouldn't love Usuki?
She just wouldn't be the same
If she were a Ruki!

(No shade meant of course
To our four-legged friends,
But today is Usul Day
And I hope none of this offends!)

So prepare a Strawberry Usul Cake
And don your finest tail-bow
Hang up an Usuki Ribbon Garland
Don't forget to hug an Usul that you know!

Happy Usul day to you
And everyone else too
I've run out of rhymes
So I bid you adieu!

Lumi's Last Stand
by togepwi

Babysitting should be easy, right?
But it's giving me such a fright!
I can't believe I took this job
They didn't tell me there's a mob!

They said it was simple childcare
But the Baby Usuls are everywhere!
How can I handle them all?
They're vicious, yet so small!

Please help me!
Before they take over the nursery!
Watch out for the broom
Or you'll meet your doom

I gave them the milk they desired
Hopefully now they'll get tired
And maybe we can put them down for a nap?
I really hope this isn't a trap!

I just wanted to buy a new shirt
I didn't realize babysitting would hurt!
With one more bottle in my hand
This is my last stand!

A Day for Usuki
by tickleh

The pink boxes
And perfect bows!
My favourite toy ever
Is Usuki- and everyone knows

A doll for every occasion
Something for everyone
Always fun and new
Whether you prefer magic, zombie, pink or blue!

I have almost all of them
Because I’m not lazy
You’ll never miss a sale 
When you’re this Usuki crazy!

It’s my favourite time of year
Before I go on holiday
I get the best gift of all
A new Usuki, hooray!

The Shadow Usul: A Malicious Menace
by _brainchild_

Usul of Shadows, oh so fierce,
Is treacherous---she chills
The nerves with pure intent to pierce
The soul. All screams are shrill
When beast so snickering takes form
In eerie fog of night.
The witch surrounds you like a storm---
You'll beg for bliss of light.

If you are lucky, she will swipe
An item you adore.
In fury, you may start to gripe;
However, many more
Unlucky victims have succumbed 
To shadows altogether.
So, you should feel blessed and not bummed
Under the wretched weather.

Those who have entered voids so dark
Have not returned---how grim!
Reality is cold and stark---
Don't travel on a whim.
Usul of Shadows, beastly, will
Cast such a wicked spell
That you will vanish, heartbeat still---
She's very tough to quell.

A winter activity
by betti666

On Terror Mountain’s peaks they race
The snow's embrace, a frozen lace
Each turn a dance, a fleeting trace
Of Usuls skiing in a downward chase

The powder sprays up a diamond mist
Before skies of gold and amethyst
A thrill it is to just exist
An activity they just can’t resist

And as the dusk begins to fall
A quiet calm envelops all
The audience they shall enthrall 
Powerful acts despite being small

So as they ski and spirits soar
Each run leaves them wanting more
Of this activity they just adore
A passion for a sport they can’t ignore

Garin and his Stamp
by dennykins

A rookie error had been made,
In my collecting quest.
A hefty price was to be paid,
Who could have ever guessed?

The stamp that I’d wish I had bought,
Starred swashbuckling Garin,
He helped out Isca and he fought
Against The Revenge cannons. 

This Usul captain was so brave,
Leading the Black Pawkeet.
Sailing through storms and over waves,
No failure or defeat.

On the other hand, I think,
My chance to fill this page,
Had rapidly began to sink,
As if by Scarblade’s rage. 

With the release of Kelpbeard’s stamp,
In the void plot’s prize shop,
Garin Stamp’s price began to ramp,
And just forgot to stop. 

But then, this month, good news appears,
Garin Stamp is rereleased!
It brings with it some Quest Log cheer,
I’ll have this stamp at least.

Hannah the Brave
by ennyra

Every day while at work, 
Hannah dreamt of more. 
There has to be adventure out there, 
Just waiting beyond these doors 

When she goes home at night, 
She takes the long way around. 
Anything to be able to explore, 
She never knew what all could be found.

One day she had enough, 
And decided to live her dream. 
Going on all the treasure hunts, 
She didn't even need a team. 

She came across many foes,
But into the fights she went.
No fear ever stopped her, 
Her every day was well spent. 

As we celebrate all Usuls today, 
Let's recognize one who explored many caves, 
And now she's onto Kreludor,
The one and only - Hannah the Brave!

Slow and Steady
by ningkov1

The Maraquan Usul made a slow advance 
The rhythmic movements put watchers in a trance 
Sliding by ever so slowly 
Slimy trail sparkling brightly 

Life goes by fast 
Don’t let the good times pass, 
Enjoy the Usul Day Parade 
Eat some Usul Cake in the shade 

Stop and try the Usul Cupcakes 
Take a sip of the Citrus Usul Shakes, 
Watch the fall leaves float by 
Cloud Usul Balloons up in the sky 

Like the Maraquan Usul take your time 
At your own pace is fine,
Usul Day is for all to enjoy 
There may even be a new Usuki toy!

A Villanelle for Hannah
by precious_katuch14

Hannah the Usul, brave adventurer,
Songs of her are sung wherever she goes.
Indomitable, she'll never falter.

Eyes upon the prize, the rarest treasure,
She begins her quest, she just can't say no,
Hannah the Usul, brave adventurer.

Whether mountain high, or underwater,
Exploring caverns deep, dark, or narrow,
Indomitable, she'll never falter.

Armin and Kanrik are glad to have her,
Reliable friend, and plucky hero.
Hannah the Usul, brave adventurer.

After all, Hannah is also eager,
To protect her friends, and take on their foes, 
Indomitable, she'll never falter.

No matter the place, or waiting danger,
Whether for treasure, or allies she knows,
Hannah the Usul, brave adventurer,
Indomitable, she'll never falter.

The Wraith Usul
by dragonlord812

See the Wraith Usul, purple, black and pink.
And yellow eyes, caught between a blink.
Staring at my soul, causing me to dread,
this dark Usul, a nightmare in my head.

He's a dark figure, standing in the night.
Contact with his eyes, and I want the light.
Hiding in the shadows, lurking in the dark,
He states me down, making me his mark.

With his wispy mane and his spiral tail,
He's there watching me, wanting me to fail.
I can't run away, hopeless, don't you see?
Everywhere I go, there he waits for me.

There in the dark, I face him face to face.
I am tired of running, weary of this race.
Suddenly his yellow eyes falter and go dim.
He was as afraid of me as I was of him!

See the Wraith Usul, who is now my friend.
He may look scary, but that is not the end.
His eyes still slits, his tail still spirals in,
he is now happy as friendship does begin.

Even the ones hidden in the back of the shelves

And she loves making Neopia just so pretty
You’ll be strutting around showing off your new look
From Meridell to the Faerie City!

Watch out for Uzzaro the Usul Bank Thief!
by alagfalaswen

All bank tellers are taught to be on guard
And watch for any tell-tale signs
of Uzzaro skulking, for she is barred 
from entry, as per the guidelines.

For Uzzaro the sneaky Usul Thief
has earned her notoriety
for her numerous heists that, although brief,
Has caused big losses a-plenty.

If you’re not on alert, all you will see
Is a startling flash of bright green,
Then whole blocks of gold are gone suddenly,
Missing – no longer to be seen!

So stealthy and quick are Uzzaro’s heists
She’s become a whispered legend
Bar her at the doorway, a click sufficed,
You must be resolute and stern,

Or else, know this – your bank WILL lose some gold
Your other customers brought in,
The complaints will pile, your career will fold,
and Uzzaro will take the win.
