Hey there!

I posted this on Mystery Manor's poetry corner but thought y'all might find it amusing too.

Oh the Hidden Object Game!
Enough to drive one's mind insane?
To squint and gaze and squint again.
To think how some hate a mere maze!
Oh pixel hunt, oh pixel hunt.
Less like a home run than a bunt.
And yet and yet and yet, alas.
Strange how I cannot let them pass! grin

This thread inspired me:

What HOGs the game developer's mind?
The hidden object game, I find!
The titles change, but just the same
The HOG is the pre-eminent game.
I cast my mitten with this vent:
I'd love a good time management!
Day One: a HOG; Day Two: a HOG.
Why, someone ought to write a blog!
Days three and four and five and six...
Hey, there's a Match-3 in the mix!
Just one TM game on Day Seven.
Then I'd be blissful, like in heaven.
But I'll be patient, I won't be rash...
I'll wait for Mania, Rush, and Dash.

Stellaluna!
You've outdone me!

Excellent work and I think your muse is more inspired than mine.

I'm so glad we could give our fellow gamers a casual smile.

And thanks for all the praise everyone.
Be careful, though.
You might encourage us! wink
