[img align=left]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b174/theatticbox/fdb7af60-1fa1-491e-8bf8-6b314cbf19c1.jpg[/img]You notice Peeves floating in one of the hallways as you're on your way to your Common Room. He seems out of sorts. You decide to approach him and ask him what's wrong.

"Nothing, nothing!" he begins and pretends to put on a smile, but his face falls. "Out of rhymes, you see. Shan't be able to be a good spook without them!"

You hesitantly ask him if there's anything you can do to help.

"Need rhymes to go with my pranks and hijinks! Perhaps the wee student will help!"

You assume by "wee student" that he means you, though you put aside your irritation and agree to help. It must be difficult coming up with new material after hundreds of years of plaguing the school.

This writing challenge is a poetry challenge! Write a poem using Peeves's voice to go along with a prank, hijink, insult, jibe, etc. and post it here.

Some rules for this challenge 1.) Poems must be at least 5 lines. 2.) Poems must be written as though Peeves is telling them. 3.) Keep it PG13 please! 4.) The poem does not have to rhyme, but it is encouraged!

Each member may only submit one poem, and each poem to successfully adhere to the rules will receive 15 House Points. Bonus points will be awarded to poems that are particularly creative!

This challenge will end on Saturday, September 19th at 11:59PM.

I'm not really creative and English isn't my first language which makes it harder to write these, but I gave it a try :)

"Look, it’s the wee student that sat on a wall Before he knew it he had a great fall. He fell into the bushes Because I gave him pushes. A rose is red and a violet is blue I can say that it sucks to be youuuu."

I soar about the castle all day, Looking for someone with whom to play, But here, in my pocket--what have I got? Snargaluff pods old with rot! I'll dump them on you, as I fly awaaaaaaaaaaay!

I cause a lot of mischief Causing other people grief Pushing, scaring, throwing I am Peeves, I am never boring The last thing I do is laughing at YOU!!!

Max O´Conner/Slytherin

Cackling madly, but sobbing sadly, Upending tables and pulling out cables, Topping statues and eating cashews, Snuffing candles and turning handles, Juggling a torch while sitting on a porch, Unstacking parchments while taking off garments, Flood a floor but close the door, Take a break and eat a steak.

OK Peeves, here's one for when you dump water on some other first year student. But if you dump it on me I'll sic the Baron on you. Alright?

"At Hogwarts' feasts you might partake, Of meat and bread and fruit and cake. But ickle little firstie, Still looks pretty thirsty, So here's some water from the lake."

Mischief and hijinks are my skill, I never do quite get my fill. Wait - who's that over there? I spot a wee student young and fair, Me thinks this balloon will fit the bill, Hold onto your robes - you're in for a spill!

Bryony - Ravenclaw

I thought this prank would work okay I wanted to "lighten" that display of medals, trophies and awards Instead I find myself up here Rhyme-less so I can't get near. But soon enough will have those words.

Juggle,topple, hurl, then laugh. I know how to make the students dash. Pull the rug out under their toesies. Watch them fall down on their noses. WAIT-Who spots the Bloody Baron?! I shall be going; no more staring. You should all scatter; don't get toasty. Because aimless ghosties haunt the mosties.

(I'm definitely not a poet, but this was fun. :P) Elune, Ravenclaw

Megan/Hufflepuff

Ickle students all around. Don't like Peevsie swooping down! Yell, they do, and whine and scream! Peevsie laughs at them all with glee! With chalk and thorns and banging pots, Peevsie will annoy the lot!

Yeah... I've never been good at rhyming or poems.. D:

Peeves! I wrote you a limerick to commemorate breaking that swaggering bully's broom after he nearly killed that first year in the stands last weekend during Hufflepuff vs Ravenclaw. His father sent him a new one with a rather rude Howler to the Headmistress of course.

There was a young wizard from Kent, Who grew up to be a bad gent, I smashed up his broom, and started to boom, while charmed by a witch in a tent.

Poppy, Slytherin

Peevesie likes to prank and joke He'll hide you in a foul green smoke Sneaky and tricksy, he'll find you And cover you with purple goo When the day is over, the pranks done Tomorrow will be another one

I fail at poetry, lol [[hunger/Ravenna-Hufflepuff]]

Seraphina Holly, Ravenclaw

There once was a second year student Who thought wand’ring the halls wasn't prudent Then one day she met Peeves With his tricks up his sleeves And now she is nothing but truant.

Hope that helps, Peeves.

There once was a first-year from Gryffindor Who found studying to be a horrible chore He tried and he tried To keep his eyes open wide So a pail of water on his head I did pour

-Keliora, Ravenclaw

Wee students abound, In the castle or grounds, The library, Great Hall, or loo. I'll choose my tricksy, And if you don't hide quickly, I'll be more than happy to prank YOU!

-Rosethorn, Hufflepuff
