Yay I'm glad you guys are all happy with your new Armadillos c: TNI and alouette, I'll have your runner-up adoptables to you by Wednesday hopefully!

In the meantime, the winter event has begun!! Go check out the front page for the first little game, it's only a 24 hour competition though so be snappy!

Pft, shows how much I pay attention-didn't even notice I was getting a runner-up adoptable cx
Thanks so much for that Vee~I don't doubt that they'll be lovely ♥

In the mean time-poetry contest? I think I got this.
Edit again; Just went ahead and switched my entry to twelve-His Mintyness is too lovely to pass up.

Patrick
Poem:

Ever minty, chocolate baked,
Formed in rock hard candy canes,
Bright red rounds with icy stripes,
Swept off shelves at any price.
Is there anything sweet as this?
The lovely tasteful peppermint?

Loved with cocoa, loved with tea,
An ever present delicacy;
Made for winter with trademark spice,
In bark that cracks as swift as ice.
Oh object of my fondest wish!
How I adore that peppermint.

i tried to write a poem for this event... but it went totally wrong.
i stopped when i started trying to rhyme awesome with possum...

Poem:
Let me go ahead and apologize because I'm horrible with poems. But for my first Atlantean, it's worth a shot.

Through warmest night
and coldest day,
have I been bad?
Oh, all the way.

A darkened stocking,
no gifts this year.
But do not worry,
I won't shed a tear.

Another Christmas passes,
but wait, what's this?
Someone is coming?
Is it someone amiss?

No, she is right,
standing before me.
Her face looks cold,
but her eyes hold glee.

No gifts this year,
none under the tree,
but I found my true home,
And that's enough for me.

Ok that was totally cheesy. Again, I'm not a poet XD

Charcoal
Poem:
As black as night,
but as warm as day,
show me the light,
show me the way.

When all hope is lost,
and we lost ourselves,
can we pay the cost,
do we have time to dwell?

Oh what am I saying,
this isn't like me,
I better get going,
this really is getting depressing...

trolol.
I was going to write a happy poem...
but it turned serious xD

11, or eleven.
Name:
Carrie (I honestly love that name, I'm sorry xD)
Poem:
A blackened spark of light
a small ember, a warm glow
emanating from coal
However old and dirty,
it continues to amaze anew
because of what it hides,
at the very center, the heart.

It hides the opposite thing
of what it looks like,
you might not ever think
something like this
could come from that
but that my friends,
is where you'd be wrong, because
some things are not
what they appear to be

for you see,
if you compress a piece
of a shiny holder of light
coal, of course,
then you'd find
the ultimate treasure within
a diamond.

So that is why
you must never judge
a book by it's cover
a person my their actions,
no, only on the story,
on the inside.
The inside of their heart.


Oooookay fail poetry time over
I'm not even sure that I like that myself.
…yeah I fail at poetry xD

Just a little nudge~ three and a half hours left until I announce winners for these two! Hopefully I'll be able to have new ones up once the winners are announced tonight, with a different way to adopt (: If not though, they'll be up tomorrow for sure!

Also, the poems are really awesome so far! I like them all, you guys are doing a great job c:
