Nimmo Day Special

Let's Play on Nimmo Day
by chai7705

Today, let's eat and play
On this fabulous Nimmo Day
We can listen to cool tunes
As Jazzmosis swings and croons

And indulge on Nimmo Cakes
Lime, Lemon... to your taste!
Or maybe chocolate's more your favour
Milk or mint or more flavours!

But don't spoil your meal!
There's food to appeal!
A Nimmo Day Sandwich comes first
Then Nimmo Glass of Juice for your thirst

Or do you prefer something pre-packed?
It's quite convenient, that's a fact
To grab a tasty Nimmo Bento
Or Nimmo Lunchbox -- keep it for a memento!

Let's play with cute Nimmo toys
A Blue Nimmo Cracker can make a fun noise
And Nimmo Plushies are always classic
But be careful with those that are magic!

We can finish our night with Nimmo - Now and Zen
A book to relax and cuddle in the den
In a year from now, we'll know that's when
We can celebrate Nimmo Day all over again!

A Hungry Nimmo
by kellyclark1115

I'm hungry, I'm hungry!
I can't wait to eat!
Salty snacks sound delightful,
or anything sweet!

I've been hopping around,
not wasting a single minute.
From lily pad to lily pad,
no time to sit!

For it's Nimmo Day!
I need to find,
a perfect game to play.
Gah! I'm in such a bind.

The festivities are soon,
but I have no game no food,
gosh at this rate,
I'll for sure be in a mood.

I think I'll find a bite,
then resume my search.
Is that a lemon I see? 
Must resist the urge...

Ah! Steaming Hot Udon Noodles!
Those definitely hit the spot!
Now my eyes are drooping,
was I doing something? I forgot...

The Trash Talking Nimmo
by maculose

The Altador Cup is finally here.
A great right forward has now appeared.
He’s a Spotted Nimmo nicknamed Weems.
He’s very talented or so it seems.

He is crafty, fast and very tough.
Watch out cause he can be quite rough.
Brightvale’s lucky with such a player.
He adds much strength to the team’s layers.

Weems has great passion for the game.
He greatly desires all of the fame.
Keep your eyes open for his tricks.
The most well known is the Icepick.

He was nominated for something in ‘06.
It is not an award that you would pick.
It was going to happen sooner or later,
Especially when it was for the Dirtiest Player.

So if you want to see an amazing sight,
Come see this trash talker and his might.
He may have tricks but he can play!
Cheer on team Brightvale to go all the way!

Relaxing With Nimmos
by therainbowsheep

Out on the lake,
Nimmos take breaks.
Accepting nothing less,
Than eliminating stress.

Spiritual and at peace,
All their troubles cease!
Nimmos know how to take a moment,
That quiet reflection is the key component -

To a tranquil, restful existence,
Where troubles are beyond distant.
To make loyal new friends and bond,
Look for Nimmos by ponds!

Out on lily pads they float,
Relaxing and counting boats!
Welcoming, patient, kind,
Nimmos never mind -

Extra company and a new friend,
To see how their days get spent.
So grab your sun hat, head to the bay,
Relax with a Nimmo today!

Deserted Fairground Scratchcards
by theguy2020

Do you like winning cool prizes,
Ones of all shapes and sizes,
Stop by the deserted fairground,
There are rarities to be found!

Every two hours one can be bought,
Sidney the Nimmo keeps track so don't get caught,
They are only 1200 Neopoints a pop,
Make sure you bring this much when ready to shop!

You can win Neopoints and spooky foods,
Ones that will certainly brighten your mood,
Cool plushies are part of the pool,
The jackpot occasionally gets so high you might drool!

Once the best prize was the legendary Moehog skull,
Its Battledome effects were anything but dull,
One of the best freezers in the game,
Hopefully Sidney adds it back to the pool as things aren't the same!

Nimmo Zen
by rurirawr

The art of Nimmo Zen
Provides balance
To your life and improves
Health and wellness

So spend one of your days
With the Nimmos
Sit on lily pads and
Forget your woes

Take a few deep breaths
To clear your mind
Bask in the warm sun and
Slowly unwind

Focus on every sound
That surrounds you
Of Weewoos chirping and
Of dripping dew

Relax your whole body
Let your thoughts cease
Be one with nature and
Find inner peace

The Chaos Nimmo
by precious_katuch14

Just when you thought it was safe
To trek through Faerie Palace,
From high up the towers,
He swoops toward you fast!

It's the Chaos Nimmo!
Run, as fast as you can!
Lest he Obliterate you
When he lands!

Halloween painted,
Powerful wings,
Bright yellow eyes,
Malevolent grin,

Terask's loyal warrior,
He stands guard,
Hidden within the columns,
Lurking within the wards.

He spreads his wings,
Opens his arms wide.
When he casts his spell,
You'd better hide!

A trail of destruction
Follows behind him,
As he follows only
Terask's evil whims.

It's the Chaos Nimmo!
With his merciless stare,
And his terrible magic,
Straight from a nightmare!

The Water Nimmo
by truebrony

The Water Nimmo
Is calm and serene.
He’s blue as an ocean,
As cool as a stream.

Ask him a question,
And he’ll be sure
To give you the answer
That you’re looking for.

He’s contemplative,
Thoughtful and wise.
There’s peace behind
His sea-green eyes.

He sleeps by the mountain,
He sits by the caves.
He meditates softly
By rocking blue waves.

The Water Nimmo
Smiles in content.
The day has been tranquil,
And he’s ready to rest.

Reb Weemelott
by skeletonic

His history includes a nomination 
For a player that’s the dirtiest,
His team, never strayed though took a break,
Has a hunger for knowledge that is the thirstiest,
A Nimmo for the Altador Cup 
That’s for the sure-iest: 
Reb Weemelott, aka Weems. 

Weems plays for Brightvale: 
He stars as a right forward with a twist.
He stashes weapons in his uniform,
His favourite move is the “icepick”
Where his reinforced elbow 
Takes aim at the stomach. 
Yup, that’s him: Weems. 

His tenure from Brightvale 
Had never strayed. 
From 2006-2008 then 2010-2023
He has always played. 
Known for his trash talk
Against everyone, all day.
Another victim he takes, that’s Reb Weems.

A Nimmo of Lore
by cinnabonski

South of the ruins
And east of the dome
Neath mountain shadow
Resides his home

A Nimmo of legend 
A Nimmo of lore
He of great skill
And brave to the core

Finished the quest
For scarlet stone
Ardent defender
His valour well known

Friend of the Peophin
Master of haiku 
I’m speaking of course
Of the great Ryshu 

For in this house
He plies his trade
So enter my friend
And be not afraid

Defence or strength 
Endurance or level
Whatever you seek
In training you’ll revel

For nowhere else
Can you receive
Lessons like this
Or hope to achieve

Such crazy growth
Expansion of stat
A codestone or two
Covers all of that

So rise on up
Up through the ranks
Give him your all
Even your thanks

His is your guide
He will lead you ahead
About this great Nimmo
What more can be said

An Eerie Prize
by 6moricehero6

At first I bought this thing from the Gambler
He mentioned it came from a scratchcard
From the smell of it I wasn't sure
It did not look like a reward
We ended up dealing barter
A handful of nerkmids for the awkward

Nimmo Finger was in my hands
A piece of flesh so repulsive
Why is it worth ten million grands?

Sidney would say its owner lives
He is somewhere and he pretends
Someone will someday come and give
Generously his missing end

I carried the finger where I went
To find its use was what I meant
I tested if it could touch and feel
To rusty spoons it would not squeal
I Took it to an arts event
Clearly was not its main intent
Decisively its purpose would not reveal
Need reverse the barter deal

I rummaged through the Trading Post
To meet the Gambling man again
He wasn't there, figured he must
Have gone away, jumped on a train
I found Sidney at his Kiosk
Asked him if he had seen the man
"I'm ssssseeking him, he's been a ghosssst"
Said the Nimmo with his hand wrapped and a blood stain

Nimmo Haikus
by i_lovee_icecream

The Nimmo’s blue lake
Was the best world for a frog
Lily pads galore

The Veespas buzzing
In the hot and humid air
With clouds rolling by

The hot sun beaming
On a Nimmo’s skin gleaming
Dewy in summer

A ribbit, “hello”
At this here watering hole
Greetings to a friend

Bugs buzzing around
Are they Petpets or a meal?
It’s the dealer’s choice

Happy Nimmo Day!
Celebrate these Neopets
The pond hopping way

Happy Nimmo Day!
To all of Neopia
Frolic and be gay

Nimmo's Pond
by sin_hui_ryoma

Down by the banks of Kiko Lake,
Nimmo paddles from bank to bank.
Deadly lily pads at his flank,
He fires bullets at point blank;

Left and right, he circles in place
To clear them all without a trace.
When facing them he presses space,
And bullets fly out from his face.

His resort is under attack
By floating foes that don’t fight back.
Each time he beats one of the pack,
It leaves a bunch more in its track.

At this rate he cannot expect
To claim the gold trophy object;
Some powerups he must collect
To help him his pond protect–

A multi-shot preferably…
The powerup spawns from debris!
But it eludes him endlessly.
He lunges and claims it with V.

Now moving forward, he can’t stop.
He runs into everything–bop!
With an eep, ipe, ope, and an op,
His health bar hits zero–kerplop!

Notable Nimmos: A Haiku Tale
by tonivenus

As summer draws near
The Nimmo Traveler's stick
Clunks along a path

“Where are the Nimmos
Who have made the biggest splash?”
He marvels, searching

Strong legs, long miles
Hiking forests, swimming seas
He locates his kin:

A city bookshop
Blue, webbed hands turn the pages
Seeking fresh knowledge

Yooyuball player
Reb Weemelot from Brightvale
Commits a foul—ouch!

On foggy Fairgrounds
Sidney tips his hat, hisses,
“Ssscratchcard?” No thanks! Ack!

Gorunda the Wise
In the swamp, guarding secrets
From the dawn of time

Lost Desert, hot sun
The Nimmo in Sutek's Scrolls
Grants ancient wisdom 

Qasalan Nimmo
In Words of Antiquity
Sells scrolls worth reading

Bonnie the Pirate
Scrawny, with a big sweet tooth
No spicy meals, please!

The Cyodrake’s Gaze
Orrin, master of supplies
Owns Exotic Foods

Island's swaying trees
Ryushu trains, finds his rhythm
Wins in Battledome

Ishtar, Fire Nimmo
Inspires good behaviour
In legends retold

Notable Nimmos
All across Neopia!
Have you met them, too?

Glad to learn of them
The Nimmo Traveler rests
His quest at its end

And now, it’s your turn:
Celebrate their special day
Like a Nimmo would!

Meditate, relax,
Free training, read books, swim –SPLASH!
Happy Nimmo Day!

A Stereotypical Nimmo
by bittersweet52

We're in the middle of our summer days
Our lazy days, in the month of Relaxing
Going down to the beach to soak in the rays
Nothing in life is remotely taxing

Well, except maybe that Altador Cup
I guess some people are into that sport
When others talk about it, I barely look up
I'm guess I'm more of the yoga sort

With my long thin legs and my long thin arms
Maybe it seems just a little cliche
But if I enjoy it, then what's the harm?
To each their own, find your own way

I'm that stereotypical Nimmo friend
Vegetarian, artsy, and full of love
I watch waves lap the shore, and willow trees bend,
And the clouds float by in the sky up above

I like rainbows and Petpets and giving out gifts
Kindness, the Golden Rule, and floating on a SUP
You know, I just remembered the ol' "Icepick"...
Let's go Weems, Brightvale for the Cup!

Nimmo Elixir of Healing
by pixie_tea

What is that glistening green bottle from afar?
I walk towards it because it was glowing like the brightest star.
The green bottle speaks:
"I am the Nimmo Elixir of Healing and I appear before you because your Nimmo is hurt and it is I who your pet seeks."

The Nimmo Elixir of Healing speaks the truth,
My Nimmo is hurt and just had the removal of a baby tooth.
"Go on, pick me up and use me on your Nimmo for he will feel so much better after drinking me."
I listen and pick up the Nimmo Elixir of Healing after bending down on one knee.

Quickly running back to my Neohome,
My Nimmo is resting on a bed that is as soft as foam.
I told my pet about my encounter with this magical green bottle that can talk,
After hearing the story, my Nimmo quickly drank the Nimmo Elixir of Healing and all his pain went away and he can now walk.

This is a pleasant surprise,
Because no medicine or remedies would work after so many tries.
However, this Nimmo Elixir of Healing took away my Nimmo's pain,
And my pet was so shocked to see that the spot where the tooth was extracted now has a brand new fully grown tooth there--- how insane!

A Very Special Nimmo Day
by dumbliedore

If, this Nimmo Day, by the by,
You catch a Mutant Nimmo by the eye,
Don’t panic, and don’t fret,
Don’t do something you’ll regret.
Take a chance on that homely guy,
Don’t believe me? Here are some things to try—
 
Take them to a Poogle Race,
With backs turned, the Poogle won’t see his scary face
And if they do, they’ll surely pick up the pace
So place your bets on who’ll win first place.
 
Travel together to the Forgotten Shore,
With buried treasure, it can never be a bore.
Shovel and push the sand, it’s no chore,
Don’t find anything? Dig some more!
 
If you’re reading this I’m sure you know,
There’s somewhere else you two must go!
To Darigan Citadel, that tower of woe,
Go watch the Petpets move to and fro,
As they test their might and steal the show.
 
Having fun yet?
Yes, I bet!
Prepare to see how wide that Nimmo’s grin can get!
It’s time to stop at Kelp with your new favourite pet—
To start, Thornberry Brew to beat the heat,
Pate La Kelp (if it’s his day to cheat),
Then Luxurious Vegetarian Star Pie with a side of meat,
Round out the meal with an Octopi Souffle, it’s not a day out without a sweet treat!
 
Bellies bloated and eyelids sleepy,
Return him to his pond but don’t be weepy,
You had loads of fun and that meal wasn’t cheapy,
As he curls up on his bed, smile on his face, take another look, he’s not so creepy.

Shufflin' Shuffletoes
by draiklover139

Olabet Shuffletoes
Here's how this goes
Everyday he's shufflin'
On the grind, hustlin'
Steppin' outta this mud
For his other Nimmo buds
Gotta grab the goods
Make it outta these woods
Huff all the way to Neopia Central
'Cuz spooky food might be detrimental
To the tummies of the normal
(Sometimes he forgets 'cuz he's immortal)
So he's stomping out of his grounds
To bring everyone around
The time is drawing near
For all the Nimmos to appear
So this zombie has things to do
To get ready for the crew
And gather everyone in sight
For the day that brings Nimmo delight
(Even to those undead)
(The Awakened will even behave instead)
And celebrate Nimmo Day
Hooray hooray!

Gorunda the Wise Nimmo
by califorthehomeless

Gorunda the wise, oh who is she
A swamp witch?
An old maid?
A crone who catches flies?

Deep in the spooky forest
Hard to find and harder to seek
If you brave her wrath
She might let you speak

For secrets and legends
She knows them all
She’s been around longer 
Than you would have pondered

For a prize she might have you
Of wisdom and words
Of the old times of Neopia
Before you had explored

So try her traps
Traverse the swamp
Give it your all
For the gift you might be enthralled!

The Nimmo Who Sells Tasty Culinary Feats
by _brainchild_

Orrin is a Nimmo who
Stocks lovely food for me and you,
From rice to sushi, many rolls,
And stir fry, cooked in pretty bowls.

Some foods are spicy; others are
Quite sweet, like juicy jam in jars.
Where does the Nimmo get this stuff?
A simple answer is enough.

My favourite is the Sushi Boat.
The food shall sail right down my throat!
However, ship of rolls is rare,
So fitting for a boat with flair.

I thank the Nimmo for these goods.
If you are in Shenkuu, you should
Just take a moment and stop by
For food, which you will love to try.

Ryshu, Battle Master
by peacelovebliss

If you’re feeling quite useless
after another Battledome fight
I know just who you can go to:
the  famed Nimmo warrior Ryshu
On the sands of Mystery Island
his training school can be found
You can’t possibly get lost since
Ryshu’s well-known all around
To get along with this Red Nimmo 
here’s some personal advice:
Be very serious about battling
but to others, always be nice
for Ryshu would know best
that good balance is always key
Having strength will get you far
but you must have a calm strategy
(Have you tried writing haikus?
They often bring him tranquillity)
With fighting skills and inner peace
Ryshu’s school is worth the fee
Going through his training will be
well worth sweet battle victories!
Ryshu instructs his own students
with the skills to win tough battles
they leave stronger, smarter, faster
I refer Ryshu to others regularly
He’s the ultimate Battle Master!

Nimmos Pond
by profebest

Nimmo day has begun,
You woke up around the pool,
Collecting the power-ups you must do,
Shooting the lily pads gains you points,

Clear all the lily pads;
You see on your Path,
Paths that you see floating-
On the water, inside the lake,

In order to advance,
to the next pond,
Faster lily pads,
Must be gone,

Destroy them, Nimmo said,
Don't bump into them,
If you do, you lose,
The whole game;

The more you advance,
The faster they go,
Dodge them in order -
To win the Nimmos game,

Happy Nimmos Day!
