Oh! I'm sorry, I must have missed that... how's this?

This addiction is
Stronger than I can be now
I must go and check
To make sure my villagers
Are doing okay today

Better? \:\)

Coconuts Call Me
- by HappyPlayer \:D

The sky keeps clicking
The Guiding Hand is shouting
“Don’t you tell me, ‘No!’”

The clicking is gone
I sneak over to the groove
Coconuts call me

I hear from the sky
“No! Not the coconut trees!”
I climb anyway

“Stop all that clicking!”
I say to the Guiding Hand
“Coconuts call me!”

Hunger drives me on
Teacher with big crab in path
(Why don’t we eat that?)

I walk right through her
My coconut prize in hand
Clicking sound returns

“Hey!” I shout to Hand
“My feet shouldn’t leave the ground.
Where’s my coconut?!”

“No! Not the Fire!”
Suddenly I am let go
See mushrooms in flames

Clicking goes elsewhere
I hear my name in the wind
Coconuts call me…

Cool \:\)

Here are some more of mine:

Pacific island,
By the name of Isola,
Home to many tribes,
Skirted by beautiful trees,
Surrounded by blue oceans.

Coconuts for food,
Crystal pond water to drink,
Fire to keep warm,
Luxurious don't you think,
I would love to live their lives!

A new golden child,
Wouldn't that be fantastic,
No parties again!

When the tide goes out,
And Isola is quiet,
And the wind is fast,
You should remember to yell,
"AAAH Tsunami Everyone!"

When you're all grown up,
And LDW's old,
Remember the games,
The feeling owning a fish shop,
The thrill of running a tribe.

Loc: the hills and hollers of Tenne...
This is such a marvelous collection of poetry. I'm glad I'm not a moderator because I'd have to grab them all. Perhaps after VVIII is a wrap the LDW team might consider printing them up into a nice booklet and offering them for sale in the gift shop?

Okay, so, this idea came from something Caphat said in the SB... they graciously allowed me to use it. \:\)

"One Hundred percent
Would be terrific to see;
Then I can have fun
In the land of VV3!
I’m sure it will be great, whee!

Wow, people keep giving me ideas! This one came from a post by Tmac!

Waiting and Waiting,
Wondering what we should do
VV3 sure looks different
From the first VV and 2
All we need to do is wait…
