    Easter, the Cubic Way
    Yay, it's easter!
    Lets go hunt some eggs.
    have fun, and go and play
    and then train your legs!

    Somebody's giving some pows!
    What a good QBee indeed,
    Let's go and take it into our house
    then take some bunnies to feed.

    Oh, there comes BunnyZilla!
    The best there ever is
    He hops and jump all over the mines
    Let's all run and take wathever's his

    Slymegood, an evil blob
    he's a very large, green snob.
    He'll do anything to catch that bunny
    The Zilla's going to be sure angry

    Happy easter to all of you,
    hope that you have a fun holiday too
    And also do not forget because of the virus
    Please do not feel blue!

    The Lament to Bunnyzilla

    O, Bunnyzilla, I cry out to thee!
    To come back to Eden and meet us Qbees
    O, Bunnyzilla, whom Slymegood captured
    The eggs he smashed, and Qbees he tortured

    O, Bunnyzilla what has Slymegood done?
    Enslaving Qbees purely for fun
    O, Bunnyzilla, we long to be free
    From the chains of slyme and sorrow for thee!

    To Slymegood we're left, to suffer and weep
    O, Bunnyzilla, we cry out to thee!



    O, Bunnyzilla, we failed the command
    To obtain the eggs, or your life is at hand!
    O, Bunnyzilla, our hope is gone
    Slymegood has triumphed and little was done

    O, Bunnyzilla, white, fluffy and fair
    To be sacrificed inside Slymegood's lair
    O, Bunnyzilla, by our guilt we dwell
    As we watch, this pure rabbit fell

    He's dead! He's gone! He will never come back!
    "O' Bunnyzilla!" we cried and we grieved

    I tried my best to create a poem
  • Oh my gosh. I worked so hard for this poem. Lmao. Here's my ugly work

    Easter Day in our Hearts

    COVID is in the 2020.
    Many players should have stay home
    But in cc, we all roam.
    Some are AFK, so they don't move.

    The Easter Event just came out.
    Qbees anywhere are excited to go
    Selling the items they want to so,
    They will open easter packs.

    Bunnyzilla is working for his giveaway
    To brighten our beautiful day,
    But something is wrong with it.
    Someone suspicious is happening to meet.

    Slymezilla. Slymezilla? SLYMEZILLA!
    He has made his way to capture Bunnyzilla.
    We must plan to get him back.
    Cc players preparing has come to shock.

    Oh! Easter eggs!
    We forgot about that!
    Everybody hunt now and move our legs.
    Let's help Bunnyzilla to get rid of Slymezilla

    Work Hard! Oh! Work Hard!
    Roam around and find as many as we can.
    We must get 200k easter eggs then,
    Bunnyzilla will come back

    Qbees everywhere, looked for easter eggs.
    While Slymezilla planning what to do with Bunnyzilla
    Quick! Quick! Run! And find MANY!
    We're almost there for it.

    Suddenly, Slymezilla came!
    Destroying all the eggs
    Qbees felt upset for what he did.
    So now, the battle.

    Qbees used their wands to fight him
    But he was so powerful to defeat
    Slymezilla has damaged the qbees really hard
    Little did they know, he was too powerful.

    Qbees shoot him altogether
    Teamwork makes the work better
    Now, Slymezilla is now weakened.
    He was no longer a zilla

    "NOOOO!" Dr. Slymezilla cried.
    And now, the qbees has released bunnyzilla
    He soon has rised
    Joyful qbees went back.

    tiny question, can we do another poem?
  • tiny question, can we do another poem?

    i was thinking the same too, @TheRealMinister9 how many entries are allowed?
  • The grass was green, the world was bright;
    No taint came from the lands of night,
    The portals violet with magic swirled;
    When BunnyZilla yet walked the world.

    The skies were blue, the world was good;
    In land of Spyre where he still stood,
    But now is darkness fated to be?
    In a world where there’s no room for me.

    The lands are grey, the sky is green;
    Now slymes of darkness oft are seen,
    Easter eggs are cracked, the chocolate gone,
    We seek for Zilla hither and yon.

    Where are you now, O’ bunny fair?
    In Slymegood’s trap have been ensnared?
    The world is bleak, no songs are sung;
    No flowers from the plants have sprung.

    Why have you left, O’ rabbit pure?
    From dying lands no more secure
    Than leaves upon the springtime breeze,
    From lands of pain and lack of ease?

    The trees have withered, their branches dead;
    The leaves have fallen, the sap has bled;
    We yearn for thee, we long for thee,
    In a world of sickness and debris.

    hmm, not really more than one but there are ways around it, you can extend your poem as much as you want. As they're all Easter-themed they will probably fit in.
  • The Easter Mystery
    One day before easter
    A fat green guy came in
    He was an ugly creature
    And he said he'll win.

    Bunnyzilla was captured
    We wanted to save him,
    But slymegood answered:
    "200k eggs or i will sacrifice him!"

    We are all hunting for eggs
    We have all hurt our legs
    Just to save our lovely bunny
    So he can come and give us "money"

    My Ressurected Lord
    So special he is my savior, my king,
    Ruler, creator , his praises I sing.
    The wondrous amazement of all that he's done,
    My heavenly sent down his own son.
    How blessed we are to have such a chance,
    No longer condamned to one circumstance.
    But Jesus came down his live he did give,
    That all whom believed through him now may live.
    Though his death there alone did not pay our way,
    For him is alive and the stone rolled away.
    Thank you dear Jesus for saving my soul,
    Through your birth, death, and ressurection I am made whole!

    Get on the game, and join our train
    Collecting eggs 'til we hit 200k
    Sure it's a lot of work, but it's worth it
    As long as Bunnyzilla's here, it'll be perfect

    Oh no, is that Slymegood I see?
    Thankfully he's not after me!
    Wait what? Bunnyzilla's tryna flee?
    Looks like Slymegood is after our bunny!

    We split in groups
    What do we do?
    What will happen to our bunny?

    The hunt is on, 200k
    How long will it take?
    So far we're doing okay
    We must collect, until it's the 19th day

    Times running out,
    what do we do?
    Will we make it?
    To save our dude?
    We've treated him like trash,
    And now we're helping
    If he doesn't make it, Easter will crash

    We're close, I can feel it
    Just grind all day, it'll make you fit
    Power up those legs and use 'em
    Find 200k eggs, we can help him!

    We're on our final days,

    Read it like a doll wrote it, not a real-world person.





    Collect eggs nonstop until you get tired.



    Collecting eggs is a sacrifice, closing one's eyes and surrendering, it's hard at first but you'll get used to it, profiting is a terrible vice, I'd rather have an event to teach me than trying.



    back more than 3 days trying too hard,while some then speaking,said it was fashion I kept on working,they wonder why the fashion is lasting.



    And even if I made a mistake, if I failed to look, I'd still do so much more than, whoever talks pretty but only talks and doesn't focus: a goal to achieve, strength: to never give up fighting and faith: to keep me on my feet as long as I can



    I'm not the most commented on, but maybe I'm the most aware that no one is more than anyone else,well,luck has been cast,the last journey,I see you on arrival,I followed every footprint of my own blood and sweat,because I worried about doing good,not being better



    all are traders from under the sky,for they sell their dreams to have more and more,I'm enough to say that if the pulse still pulses hope will live,here one in a million was born to win,but nothing prevents that one from being you.



    Note: I know it may seem a little out of context but if you understand it well and look closely it will make perfect sense.



    the story is a qbee that his biggest dream is to be first in the egg hunt so he makes a poem to be inspired to collect more and more ...
  • Note: I know it may seem a little out of context but if you understand it well and look closely it will make perfect sense.

    I will understand it, I'm not reading them yet I'm going to find some time in a few days to read them all but yes, I'm sure I'll understand it fine. Thank you.

    Another Easter, another time to relax
    But not this time - Dr. Slymegood's back!
    "If you don't collect enough eggs, then you will find,
    Bunnyzilla left to die!"

    The qbees set off, working tirelessly
    Wondering if BZ would ever be free
    They worked and worked and worked and worked
    Dreading to know where Slymegood lurked

    Will Bunnyzilla be slain with unimaginable pain?
    And thus the start of Slymegood's eternal reign?
    Or would Bunnyzilla escape? Flee for his life
    And defeat Slymegood with a qbee uprise?

    The task seemed impossible - they wondered how
    Whether they'd see another Bunnyzilla pow
    Weeks and weeks passed. They lost all faith
    It was impossible for Bunnyzilla to be saved

    And so, Bunnyzilla was beaten to a pulp
    And eaten by Slymegood in one huge gulp



    I enjoyed writing this - sorry for the dark ending >:)
  • Thank you for all of your poems, this is the cut-off point and no other poems will be entered now. Thank you.

    I will be posting the results up in 10-20 minutes.
  • Winners have been announced!
