Rainbow Dash Reads Poetry, Attempt #1

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Rainbow Dash walks onstage. "Hello, my wonderful fans! As you know, I recently became quite the celebrity. I am the most sought after flyer in Equestria, and still not in the Wonderbolts. To portray my anguish at not getting in yet, I composed this poem. Enjoy!"

Spinning out of control,
the moon and sun as one.
Time passes ,
an eternity too slow;
The last mistake of this age.

The gate opens.
A shinning rift in space
where time and ponies meet.
A tunnel to new universes.

Rainbow Dash finished reading and bowed. An old tomato hit her in the head. She screamed in shock and flew through the nearest window.

Twilight Sparkle chased her, a basket full of old fruit on her back. "Get back here! I wrote that for you to cheer you up in the hospital. How dare you take credit for my work!"


Author's Note

Why is everybody taking credit for my work? Even ponies are doing it!
