Art Day Charity Drive

Art day came along this week
During which we were inspired
To take up pens and paint brushes
And create something to give to charity

Kai, rather surprisingly
Was the first to disappear
It almost seemed like he had taken
Residence in the monastery's forge

Nya and Pixal seemed to team up
Though no one knew of their plans
Although when I went into the hangar
There was an awful lot of noise

Often Keo and Lloyd would come inside
With wood shavings all over their clothes
Needless to say they were forever directed
Down the hall and towards the bathroom

Cole, well, we didn't see him either
He locked himself up in his room
And good luck getting him out
He wouldn't budge even for cake

I was often the one to bring him food
Per Zane's insistence I might add
But every time I opened the door
A wad of paper was thrown at my head

I guess his muse wasn't cooperating
With the time limit we had been given
But at least he seemed to be faring better
Than the blankness my mind presented me

Even Zane and Brix had better luck than me
Both had taken the lounge room
With Brix making jewelled clothes
And Zane taking to macrame

Which left a little blue ninja lonely
And trying to sift through his thoughts
What could he create in time
When what he had planned was taken?

The plan I had originally
Was to create something out of nothing
A little nod to my tinkering self
But Nya and Pixal had similar thoughts

And dancing was out of the question
I needed a piece to show
Cause I don't think the team would like it
If I had auctioned myself off

Okay, so maybe they would somehow miss me
I'd give them a day at least
To realise just how important I am
But alas that's not the point

Point is, it's been a week already
And the auction starts at noon
Which is why I'm awake at four am
Struggling to get this to work

I really hope this gets somewhere
As I finally put my pen down
But with Zane breathing down my neck
I know I need some sleep

He says he'll make this presentable
Tidy it up, if you will
So I guess it's all up to him now
And with that my brain is done
