I'm going to say... limit three per person. :)
Here is one of my submissions:
Oh, Hufflepuffs.
Oh Hufflepuffs, Hufflepuffs
Good Finders they Be
Hufflepuffs, Hufflepuffs
Stick with you faithfully
Hufflepuffs, Hufflepuffs
Forever Just and kind
Hufflepuffs, Hufflepuffs
Always keep an open-mind.
Nymphadora!
"ITS TONKS!" she yelled
was one of the many hufflepuffs
who excelled
Along with Ms. Pomona sprout
and the handsome Diggory
who will live on forever
in our memory
Hard working and loyal
dedicated and fair
Try making fun of hufflepuffs now.
IF YOU DARE!
What the Hell's a Hufflepuff?
(a poem by Haley Miller)
Humble and caring we Hufflepuffs are,
Undaunted by toil no matter how hard.
Friends to the last, honest and true,
Fighting always to help and give aid to you.
Last house remembered of the Hogwarts four,
Each member accepts this, for we know the score.
Potter ahead can defeat Voldemort,
Undaunted follows the Hufflepuff support
Friends we have here, none quite the same,
Finding their pride in the Hufflepuff name
Though most may focus on Gryffindor, the supposed brave at heart.
Others focus on the others, the wise, and those of the sly art.
Though no matter how often we back up our friends,
The respect Hufflepuff gets has no beginnings, and no ends.
The reliable, trustworthy house of Hufflepuff continues to be forgotten,
Just as the respect for their valiant efforts continue to be rotten.
Even though the house often gets put down,
The benevolence of the Hufflepuffs continue to take the crown.
So when thinking of those who gave their lives for the cause,
Don't just think of 3 houses whose lives will always be lost.
Hufflepuff continues to show great heroes
To help demolish the villain who is lacking a nose.
With only support of 3 houses- Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and HUFFLEPUFF
The condition of the slytherins, Voldemort, and Death Eaters are left as quite rough.
To those who like to mimic and joke and disrespect those Hufflepuffs,
No fight could be won without these students who are bold, brave, and TOUGH.
respect the puffs, or be reduced to great fluff.
A Hufflepuff Haiku
Hufflepuff's are Fair,
but not so very clever,
Oh "Riddikulus!"
Hufflepuff's are Patient and Loyal,
They care not for Toil.
But do not take for granted their kind,
A truer friend you'll never find.
Hogwarts’ students are so full of potential,
Sorted into a house based on credential.
There’s Gryffindor, home of the brave and strong,
Ravenclaw, where they’re never wrong,
Slytherin’s members are ambitious and rough,
But don’t forget dear old Hufflepuff.
If you see them sporting black and yellow
You can assume that they’re a good fellow.
Dedicated and hardworking, they never give up,
Loyal as can be, just like your pup.
Never have I found a ‘Puff you could spoil,
Or one who was too afraid of toil.
No amount of work is every too tough.
Don’t forget about dear old Hufflepuff.
When Hogwarts was attacked from every side,
They were not the ones to run and hide.
They stayed behind and put up a fight,
While Slytherin and Ravenclaw ran in their fright.
You can call them quiet and gruff,
But don’t forget dear old Hufflepuff.
This house is the most underestimated,
Said to be for no other reason created,
But to accept all that don’t belong,
And I must say that this is wrong.
Every Hogwarts student has potential,
And each one is sorted based on credential.
They may not be known for knowledge or power,
They may not sneak into the Astronomy Tower.
But they’re among the most decent in the school,
And if you haven’t noticed, Cedric is cool.
So if you have trouble remembering stuff,
Just don’t forget about Hufflepuff.
