Rarity's Dirty Limerick
I know it isn't a limerick but I was requested to do a "dirty limerick about rarity" so the "limerick" part stuck.
Rarity's Ditry Limerick
To Rarity, none's worse than dirt
To think of it makes her hurt
It stains her clothes, gets in her hair
It is something she can... not... bare!
But even so
With all her woe
She still finds time to preen
To braid her hair
Give it flair
Impart upon it: sheen
But in her pampering
You'll see her sampling
The finest of mud masks
They come from lands
Where mud is grand
To find out why, my task
The Vacation (all main six)
A vacation down south, they had all sought
Mexicolt tickets, they had all bought
Each of the mares, had a reason to travel
To go see new sights, let tension unravel
Now they were here, leaving the train
The day had grown late, sun starting to wane
As darkness crept up, the street lights were lit
Sounds started to grow, as luck would have it
Twilight remembered, from what she had read
Today was the day, for Mexicolt dead
Los Dias de Los Muertos, seemingly grim
'Stead they saw parties, smiles filled to the brim
As the night wore on, they felt out of place
Except for the Pink, who soon set the pace
They put on sombreros, becoming a sight
They had much to do, t'was young: the night
As hours passed by, they were entranced
From dazzling lights, and how they had danced
The days that came after
Found six friends with cheer
Their hearts filled with laughter
Ready for next year
Winter Wrap Haikus
Winter's end draws near
Ponies ready for springtime
First thing: skies to clear
---------
Small creatures still sleep
Hibernation too must end
New bird nests, a heap
---------
Food almost gone now
Big Mac leads his work ponies
Working soil with plow
---------
Lake ice needs to clear
Only pony for the job:
This pink pony here
---------
Twilight gets it now
Ponies' jobs, where they belong
Where can she help? How?
---------
Now shes found her spot
To organize the ponies
To help them, she sought
Flutter-Rage
Fluttershy: the kindest pony
Well Loved, by many a brony
But beneath her exterior
Dwells a scary interior
-----------
The first of two instances, to cause her to snap:
A dragon snoring
A dragon roaring
She had shown the beast, she would not take his... rage
-----------
The second instance, was different than last
Gala critters, she sought
Tried to chase them, they fought
She had nothing to show, her temper rose fast
-----------
For now, this is all that is shown
Of the rage in her mind, in every bone
Who knows what will come
If she finally breaks
Of her rage, the sum
Could put all lives at stake
Rainbow Dash, Bravery, and Hope
What does it mean to be Loyal?
To fight for your friends
To help make amends
To rise up when the world shouts "move"
To stand your ground and plant your hooves
This is what makes Rainbow Dash rare
Why we always see her there
What does it mean to be brave?
To look into danger's eyes
And laugh at its demise
To fly against all odds
To shoot for the gods
To turn yourself bare
When your friends need you there
This is what makes Rainbow Dash strong
Useful for her fight against wrong
What does it mean to hope?
To go against the grain
Not afraid to seem insane
To see the good in all
To stand brave and tall
To see a tortoise who tried
And found love for it inside
This is what makes Rainbow Dash kind
What keeps her in my mind
A Scootaloo Collection
Winged Ambitions
Soaring, bounding, with wind in her face
This was freedom! With beauty and grace
Nothing could touch her! Here, she was free
Energy coursed her, wing to knee
Scoot flew a long arc, making passersby stare
A great flier she was, that much was fair
The dream continued 'till the filly came to
She sighed and huffed, she had practice to do
Scootaloo's Awakening
It was a frequent dream for Scootaloo
One that held her feelings true
Falling through the dark's embrace
Tears streaming down her forlorn face
Her broken shattered wings
Being not much more
Than crumpled pathetic things
What did she have to live for?
---------------------------------------
Waking up, covered in sweat
Greeted by the sun
This day was diff'rent, that she'd bet
Out to her friends, she runs
St. Scootaloo's Hymn
They say she was a bird of peace!
Full of good! Soul white as fleece!
Full of life! Never a sin!
Now everybody sing this hymn!
(insert awesome chorus)
Scootaloo ain't no aaaangeeeel!
But she could have foooOOOooled me! (mmmhhmmm)
She has the soul of Gaaabrieeel!
Through her, our souls set free! (OW!)
(insert awesome chorus again)
Banishing fear with a soul so dear!
Never gonna leeeeet us DOOOooown! (that's right!)
Like an aaaaangel's teeeear! We always keeeep her neeear!
And spread her joy throughout the TOOOWN! (oh yeah!)
(insert awesome chorus again and end the song)
Darkness and Sorrow (poem based on The Rage)
Here is the link to the story this poem is based off of.
Darkness and Sorrow
Rage. It consumes and destroys
Lives are shattered, troops deployed
Equestrians knows this and must comply
With handling rage or their end is nigh
Like an distorted echo of their past selves
Ponies strike each other, letting anger delve
Hatred... searing, burning, HATRED! It threatens to consume
All those caught in it's spike-filled cocoon
For one day, and one night
The streets are filled with blood and filled with fright
As broken bodies litter the ground
The sun rises up and the earth finally sound.
A Lesson Learned (poem based off of Gummy's Sleepover)
Here is the story this poem is based off of. It's quite sad.
A Lesson Learned
The town was in a somber mood
Emotions laid bare, many felt nude
A friend who'd said little, spoke volumes with presence
His passing brought pain, sadness, and hes'tance
A chill wind brought harsh reality
Pinkie sobbing to death's totality
Perhaps innocence lost isn't something to fear
New beginnings: never simple
Rise and break through your tears
