My LEGO Nexus Organization

So when does this start? today?

I have a poem! It probablyy isn't that good, but it's a poem.

Legos are extremely fun,
You can play with them in the sun.
Or inside on a rainy day,
They're fun to play with any day
Star Wars, Castle, Agents, too.
So many themes made just for you.

Well, that's my poem.

It's a haiku.

Here, take a peak,
I hope my poem isn't too weak...

The Lost Brick

That brick over there,
it's age looks so severe.
Perhaps you should play
Like you used to every day?
You seem lost, touching it,
perhaps you should sit?
Take your brick,
Even if you're sick.
Go, take it, shall I say,
Here, you do it this way.
Look at it, for a moment,
And turn it into a monument,
Car, truck, house, anything...
You can even sing.
Take it, go ahead,
Don't make the plastic sad...

Approved. Have fun. ;D

I need clicks

hey  legodac
i'm in lack
of clicks on my soundtrack


Hey AB-z
please spend 3
on my very special gallery

hey anyone
have fun
as you stay
on my page
until you eat a bun

Where? I can't see them.
Ooh, fun. We just started a unit on poetry in english.

I'm not doing a haiku this week. Remember, poems don't always have to rhyme...

Have a look, it'll be quick
Take a look at that lone LEGO brick
You used to use it, night and day
But you stopped after we went to that bay
After that, you didn't give a care
You were too distracted and unaware
So, remember that lone LEGO brick
and maybe play with it when you are sick

lego is the best,
 as you can see
nothing's better than that,
at least for me
i build and take photos
of my newly built sets
i like to build houses,
monuments and jets.
Planes are good too
nothing's bad to do
I wish everyone likes LEGO







including you.

Here's my poem. It kind of rhymes... and repeates.

I like LEGOs
That is true,
They're cooler than
Some brand new shoes.

I like LEGOs
Yes it's true,
That's all I have
To say to you.

Well, there it is.

here is mine it is called why i build legos i kno it is cheesy :pand awful...

i build legos b/c
i can make anything
it is something i am enjoying
i can make an army fleet
it makes me feel 133t (elite)
it inspired me to go to their site online
you can now even view a page of mine
it just feels right
and that is all i can think of to write

I will give it a shot...

What shall we build with bricks today?
Would you like to come over and play?
There are so many things I’d like to say,
And building with Bricks is the perfect way!

My LEGO Friend you know it’s true,
I’d like to build the world with you.
There’s so many things that we could do,
With LEGO bricks, just me & you! 

How didn't I see this last week? :P

Okay, here I go:


umm... I'll go with that. It's another haiku I just thought off the top of my head.

i won! the number 3 one!


MaY i do a limerick?

lionytai likes real smart guys
he is honest though; he never lies
   he likes to eat
   carrots and meat
and he also likes to eat fries

i am going to try again

ml is fun
it is for everyone
it is really great
something that a lot of lego fans appreciate
the highest rank is achieveable
but if i get there it would be unbelievable :p
although there are dupes and others who cheat
MLN you still cant beat

May your neighbors respect you,
Troubles neglect you,
The angels protect you,
And Heaven accept you.
May you have a world of wishes at your command
God and his angels close at hand
Friends and family their love impart,
And Irish blessings in you heart.

Join the new racing game! It's really cool
Most people think it's better than school
you race and buy cars: you equip them with parts
Although it's still beta, it wouldn't break your hearts!

My friend Flipz asked me to write a soliloquy for mines of doom... I'd like to share it here...
The " poem" is contained within...

* Cart has just jumped track, DD101 is ok, Treecleaver is presumed lost*

OH My Goodness!!  …  I had a feeling something like this would happen if those boys weren’t careful. I asked them to hold on tight. What are we going to do now?
I cannot imagine an LU or an MLN without my friend Treecleaver.

I felt a bump, I heard a shout, and then we all were cast about…
And now I fear with all my heart, my friend Treecleaver’s fallen out!
Our world has changed forever more,
But he will remain alive through our lore.
A living legend, he surely was…
And a great friend to each of us.
He was such an honest trader,
And a Lego creation innovator.
He climbed the ranks from 0 to ten,
And favored LU with bricks & pen.
His skill was known by everyone,
His rep as a master bricker was fairly won.
His building star shown bright in LDD
Trading posts, ships and even a tree!
He was a beta tester for MLN,
And he was a legend, even back then.
I can’t believe he’s really gone…
I don’t know how I’ll carry on…
Alas our grand adventure is not what we all wished for.
There’ll be a void in LU forever more.

We must erect a monument to our fallen friend. His greatness and valor must never be forgotten. All my bricks will go to this endeavor.
Who’s with me?

CSUs are great! they are really rare
i would like some if yo uhave some to spare
they were worth 100 clicks! how expensive that was!
it's becuase they're rare, if you want to know the cause
now it's 60 i think, at least for me
nobody will give them to yuo for free
unless it's legodac's contest, which i'm trying to get one now
if you want some free, this is how!

i gave my friend a CSU.  He must be glad!
he gave me nothing. i am so sad.
i begged fro some clicks -that's all i need
he said," well, if you gimme some totemic feed"
i'm angry right now, angry at the lamb
i shouldn't have give him the CSU. what a ham.
the day after that he thought it was rude
he told me, "sorry, i shouldn't have given you a bad mood.
I'll give you some clicks. Ten, that's all."
I'm happy right now! Let's go to the ball!

           MASTER CHIEF


  Oh no its the flooders!!!
  Such little buggers.
  Chief come to the club
  Fill up on some grub
  You got a day ahead of you.
  Killing covenant for food.
  And flood for fun.
  But do not worry you got all types of guns!!!

Happy Easter.. This one is a gift... I want no prize.

Thorny crown
Bloody temple
Spiky whips
Scarred visage
Bruised and wounded
Heart pulsating
Stony bed
somnolence
Cross a-lugging
Weariness
Stabbing nails
gagging pain
Scorching sun
patched throat
taunts and jeers
Loving still
Thief on the cross
Paradise
A lifted voice
Jeremiah
Robe divided
Prophetic
Sin of the world
A loud cry
yielding up the ghost
Ghosts recovered
Rumble and flashes
Pouring rain
Temple shroud
Ripped foundation
Man delivered
It is finished
Glory Reborn

*Gives a big round of applause*

Hi my name is Andrew
I am sometimes rude
My Mom makes food
And my Dad makes stuff with glue.

I hate this world
Everyone acts like a girl

But if you like LEGO's
you should go to MLNO.

It is built out of bricks
Not stones or sticks

If you go on this forum
You don't want to go back home

The people that come here
Make it very clear

If you like LEGO
You should come to MLNO

Thank you  :)

Members

There are so many members of MLNO
About 300 or so

Each member is different in there own way
Some go to the games forum and play

Others go and  peacefully debate
Some even choose a lego set to rate

All in all everyone gets along
Some even share a song

So if you're on your PC
Join MLNO, it's fun and free.

I'm not very good at writing poems.

they're better than thornax and a better bee
thanks legodac for giving such things
i hope click is the thing that to yuo brings

It's getting boring now, with no one to compete.
We need more contesants to maek the contest complete.
Did you give me seven on the prize of the other?
You know, the story, which i was about to write about my mother.
Please come people, yuo get really good things.
If yuo compare it to real life the prizes are golden rings!

Here's a haiku I made in my English class once.

Hmm... what should I write?
Biography? Story? No.
I'll do a haiku.

poems are cool. tehy are fun
at this time I am writing one.

if i win just send prize to lionytai and he'll give me the items because i owe him 1000 clicks and Maybe he'll lower the number

No legodac don't send them to me

legodac, i got your PM, actually he meant 100 clicks, adn i'll send it to him, maybe he'll send it back to me.

Dear Forfunsilly
You know that you owe me 100 clicks
if you send me that CSU, I'll decrease it to six
Dear Forfunsilly
I know you're not online often, but i still have to say
I cannot block you to the rank six way
Dear Forfunsilly
even yuo need only one friend, that's fine for me
But I don't want to be suspicous, of being and duper with pandobikini
Dear Forfunsilly
Even you don't see this, it's alright
please get out of the darkness and see the bright

VERY VERY GOOD POEM, My little freind.

LEGODAC: i got the CSU, but i won't send it to lionytai :-)

Thanks legodac for the CSU
I appreciate it, I really do.

legodac, your contest rocks
It dosen't stink, like my old socks.

Just quickly made that up. Count it as an entry!
TBD

Great members of MLNO
There are a lot of great people at MLNO
When you see how cool they are you go WOAH!

They are very nice, so you don't have to be in fear
I'll also list some here,

There's legodac who likes lego train
And Blade who people claim is insane

Liontai has great deals in his store
Empire981 has 100 thornax and he doesn't want more

To all the members I didn't include
I wasn't trying to rude

You're all very cool
After all us MLNOers rule!

The game may be over,
It may be won,
But if you think about it,
There will be even more fun!

They did it so quick,
Legodac, lionytai, and all the rest,
You'll be with them one day,
Except we're all the best!

Another entry there.
TBD

Finally!!!!

Finally I'm not first, hooray for me!
The prizes are different. One now, then three.
Come on yuo guys, get posting over here.
Don't forget the story contest. It's gonna be near.
Finally the record is broken by yuo.
You guys, I agree, are the Boos!

It is such a pleasure,
To discover in your inventory,
The last three bricks of glory!

After a long time you become Rank 10.
So why am I telling you this when
I am only Rank 9?

I'll break it to you now,
I got some clicks and KA-POW,
I'm Rank 10!

TBD
P.S Sorry, just felt like writing that. It's an entry though. And it's true! :)

I thought i will quit but not this time
I just love to write and ryhme
Prizes are good. PRizes are great!
Sometimes we write a bit too late
I wish tom can get first prize, that's my vow
prizes are better than a cow

Earlier this month  I won a CSU
I'm not quite sure what to do
I've heard they are quite great
And help determine your MLN fate
I think they are used in rank nine
Either way they are quite fine
They're also worth a lot
Even more then a prize from a pet robot
I think I'll hold on to my CSU
Because they matter alot to me and you

What a great poem LVR just wrote!
If the winner is by electing, he got my vote!
Poems ryhme some time-most do, i think
some are so short that yuo don't have to blink

Okay,my poem,a limerick-

Legos can be found everywhere,
Well,maybe not,they're not found in your hair,
but they're always quite fun,
and not something you shun,
even though they're just plastic shaped square.

EDIT-when does this week's contest end?

sunday

i'll do a limerick too

Echo from MLN likes to byte
He loves apples in red light
send him one
and you'll have some fun
rank 1 is near your sight!

Nice,lionytai. Yuors is a lot better than mine....

Yay! We're doing poems in school so I'll post a haiku (Japanese style poem).:

Colorful, cold, soft
Sweet, yummy, amazing, awesome,great
pretty, epic, scenic, damp, clean

Well, it's not a haiku though .it's syllables not words.


Example~~~not for entering contest~~~
Haikus from Japan
Are five then seven and five
syllables, not words

Yeah if you read my poem you would see that wit has the 5, 7, 5 syallbles.  ;)

Actually,line 2 has 9 syallables. And line 3 has 8.  ;)

My bad. I posted the wrong poem let me edit that

yuo thought it was words, i guess.

So i guess the contest ends soon.

in a day.
stop  posting here or legodac...

The Wait for the Reopening of the Contests

Legodac is finally back
We're like sitting on chairs with a tack
We're longing for a prize
Almost stopping our cries
And poems from the great knick-knack

My lego network

Friends to be met,
A game to explore,
But we still want,yet,
So very much more,
For we say we've finished,
But it is never quite done,
That is the beauty,
Of the endless fun.

Friends

Friends are a gift,
Given from above.
They’re there when you need a lift
Or when you need a bit of love.

Friends come and go.
Yet we always remember them.
All have friends, new and old,
What would the world be without ‘em?

Friends can be anyone,
Of any gender, race, or age.
All they require is someone
To truly love through the ages.

And that is quite an old poem I wrote long ago.

here is a poem.

Steve Mcnair
He was always there
He went to the superbowl with tennesee
And in the hall of fame, he will be
When people had trouble, at he they would look
He had his own restaurant; he was a good cook
He was a great guy and he made people glad
That is why his passing was so sad

Thanks! I logged into MLN a few minutes ago and was amazed to see my inbox flooded.

Summer's here, let's go outside
No school, water fights and ice cream
Days out, holidays and beaches,
It's anyone's best dream!

But how time flies,
It's gone in a flash!
Soon the rain and wet comes.
Autumn, it came in a dash!

I made this up on the spot because I felt like it :D

August


August is the month where Legos are best.
Updated Galtorain arena game differs from the rest.
New themes, new sets, new pieces to see
Legos when my father buys me.

Creativity

Something many people admire,
For anyone can posess,
This wonderful thing,
that can often make a mess,
It brought us all legos,
To play with and have fun,
So i think that i can honestly say,
Creating is a lot of fun.

Hope of my Heart

As I walked along the streets
Many sad things my eyes did meet.
I saw the poor, the hungry, the broken
All standing there, their hope was choken.
I handed out the bags, the food
Yet it sometimes seemed that little was understood.
So off me, and my team mate, went
To show these people what our deeds meant.
We spoke, we shared, we told them of Christ
They listened, they heard, were given more in life.
We listened, we cried, we heard their stories
And then we showed them of God's glory.
Now as I remember that dark night,
I hope and pray to be to them a light.

Something experienced on my trip.

Wow, Flash... that's amazing. Are you a poet or something? Because the poems that I have seen which are written by you are brilliant.

Thank you; I guess you could consider me a poet, or maybe just a 'writer'. I love writing (and I write songs, books, ditties, etc. besides poems.)

OK, legodac has asked me to judge, so, here are the winners...
1st Place: Flash
2nd Place: Darth Twilight
3rd Place: lionytai
Congratulations!

No problem. I can do the next one if you'd like me to.

Thanks! At the moment I have a poem in mind for when I'm not judging, only problem is, it's in my English book which is at school for the summer.

Thanks Servatu/TBD and Legodac!

I think I'll just read for the next contest.

Dogs

Dogs are my friends,
always happy and wonderful,
And with his four furry legs,
They let me know that they are thankful.

I did a feed the homeless trip with my church not to long ago so I'll do a poem about it. (Flash's earlier poem inspired me to do this one so I'll give most of the prizes.)

There we were handing out bags in the cold
To those who felt there lives had been sold
To the ones who felt odd
The ones who had not found god
We gave them water to drink
Items for them think
Though there tent city
Wasn't so pretty
They are humans like you and I
They don't deserve to die
We need to look around town
Look for those who are down
Help them to see the light
The glorious light of Christ

Not bad LVR. I'm glad you could experience that.

Ok, first is LVR, and second is Guitaralex, I think. Congrats!

yes!
I won totemic animals, just what I needed.

Could I possibly judge one of the contests?

Well nobody entered this week so I suppose no one wins.  :-\

Yeah... this is weird. Oh well, I guess Legodac will just have to start up the next contest.

Why is it weird, everyone on the planet is getting lazy, including me, with obvious exceptions.

Thanks for trying Brickers...

 Re: The legodac bi-monthly poem contest #5   BEGINS NOW

:P I guess it's not really weird. I was expecting one or two poems though.

Like a Singing Nightingale,
A Bubbling Brook Sings Forth.

Like a Thunderous Cloud of Storms,
A Waterfall Crashes upon the Stones.

Like a Mighty Pack of Wolves,
A Swift-flowing River Runs Strong.

Like a roaring Dragon with no Master,
An Ocean’s Waves Careen to and fro.

Like two striving giants of strength,
A Pelting Curtain of Rain Batters the Earth.

Like a Master of All Shapes and Forms,
Water is an Element with no Boundaries.

A new entry for ya'll to enjoy :) I wrote this after experiencing the wrath of Niagra Falls.

Thank you, sah.

*Chuckles* And sure, I can judge that. I'll find another poem to stick up here in the mean time ;)

Very well. I'll try concoct something in the next five minutes... *ponders*

EDIT: Whoops, that was 7 minutes ::)
Oh well, here's a rough poem:

Thanks Legodac. If you want I can judge ;) And I can still continue to share poems, they just won't be eligible as submissions.

Very well; I shall enjoy seeing what ya'll can cook up :D

*Chuckles* Where is everybody?

Anyway, shall I send you a clickfull of rewards Legodac? Where'd you like me to click?

Fine, fine. *think, think, think* *snaps fingers* Here's a Thanksgiving one:

Red leaves drifting in the wind
Cold air nipping at your face
Here comes that time of year again
All gather round the table for Grace

Bright sun shining in the East
Time's are merry, hear the joyful laughs
We're all ready for a grand old feast
So loosen up your belt by half

Another month come by, what shall we see?
A baby in a manger, underneath the star
Season of love and grace and glee
The arrival of the new year not so far

Eh, not my best poem... *shrugs*

On request of the marvelous host, I'll be posting another poem here:

Remember the Day
A time for joy, a season for love
Because of one boy, because of Him above
A night we remember, a day to give thanks
Because of a Savior, because it’s Christmas Day
So take time this season, take a moment to spare
Remember the reason, acknowledge the heir
Relive the glory, relive the day
Ponder His story, think of the Way
Born in a manger, born in humility
He was no stranger, He is family
A plan had been made, a plan for our souls
The way had been paved, this narrow, eternal road


Old Man Winter

Thanks Legodac, and a great poem yourself. I guess that comes from good experience.

Here's a haiku...

White snowflakes
They drift and they float
Upon the wind they flitter
Drifting to the ground
From the clouds they come to earth
Until they melt have away

A haiku is a Japanese form of writing. It's a poem of sorts, but under a different structure. Usually having to do with nature, and a certain structure of syllables in each line.

Kind of like this... the numbers showing how many syllables are needed in each line:'

(1)
3
5
7
(5)
(7)
(7)

The ones in (parentheses) are the ones that are sometimes left out.

Here we go :P

I just logged on
It has been so long
Almost seems wrong
Like pizza in Hong Kong

I want to be best
So I scan the contests
These poems I've studied
With all my school buddies

They never get old
They cannot be sold
They may be forgotten
But they never turn rotten

I then scroll down
And my face is a frown
Though once filled with joy
My mind now bitter as soy

I wonder and think
Don't bother to blink
I wish I could know
Why this thing is so

Everything is in a mix
Oh poor little six
Every number got their spot
But 6 is dot, dot, dot

Cannot it count?
This screen on its mount
It stares at me so
At M-L-N-O

My comp is mocking
Like coal in a stocking
Every number has their spot
But six is dot, dot, dot...


In other words, I get bugged when pages go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...,7 I mean, the 6 is even smaller than a "..." =/ *starts throwing things* anyways, yeah, that's my entry, I guess.

WOW, a truly original poem Micah, thanks for entering.

As you can see, I'm back, though I won't be on every day, I will endevour to get here on MLNO a few times a week.

So let's carry on with the poem contest, who has one that they would like to submit in competition to Micah's, I know he won't mind that I'm late, so we'll run the contest to the end of April, then get back on track after that with the bi-monthly format.




Or how about the end of December 2011?  ;)
What do you MLNOers think?
Shall we have a poem show down to celebrate Christmas, the new year and all our time together?
Seems we have a lot of creative people here and I for one, would like to revive this contest in the new year.

For now though, how do YOU feel about sharing a poem to celebrate whatever it is that makes you happy?  :):clap:




As promised, (and only the Lego God knows how I found this) we need a new poem contest and as you can see from the prior post, I'm right on schedule.

To make a long story short, look at my new signature, I have chosen 4 pics and then added a rhyme to suit each one in consecutive order.

The challenge or NEW FORUM GAME is this...

First person (likely me) chooses 4 pictures and then posts them, next poster then makes up a rhyme to suit the four pictures, when that task is complete, that person now has an option to offer 4 pictures to be rhymed or they may do the opposite, offer a 4 line rhyme that must be answered with four pictures.

Complicated, time consuming, certainly not effortless eh.

This is a prototype post, what do you think

MERGED TRIPLE POST - The Truth
