Dear haiku journal,

this is my very first entry!

My name is Derpy!

I got this journal

at the reopened library,

just across the road.

The new owner must

be rich or from canterlot.

They had lots of bits.

The librarian

was a purple unicorn

with a pet dragon.

The unicorn was

quite distracted and did not

help me find my books.

She just kept mumbling

to herself about the moon

and the world ending.

The dragon was nice

and unlike the unicorn,

had better manners.

He was only a baby

but he still scared me a little.

He had such sharp teeth!

He called himself Spike

and he showed me this book.

He said it was mine.

Spike told me that a

"pink pony" dropped it off.

I can guess who.

Apparently she

told spike to give it to me,

that I would need it.

I took it but I

forgot to get the books that

I had come there for.

A shame but I have

not exactly had much bit's

on myself lately.

I have never had

a journal or diary,

even as a foal.

Perhaps that's why I

kept this book and not hoofed

it over to Dinky.

I have been sadder

then normal recently

due to my day job.

I have heard writing

can make you feel better and

helps to clear your head.

So I decided

to try my hoof at

some writing for once.

It is difficult

to write with my mouth,

It will take practice.

The art of haiku,

five syllables then seven

and then back to five.

As I write haiku's,

of my life in your pages,

I eat a muffin.

I just love muffins!

They always taste delicious-

except raisins. Blegh!

I have packed some

food for my daughter dinky

for when she gets home.

I packed her very

favorite type of muffin,

blueberry muffins!

I am glad we both

enjoy the same types of food.

Muffins are cheap.

I must say goodbye,

dear haiku journal.

See you very soon!

Author's Note

Soo... what do you think? This will seriously pick up later but for now I just wanted an introduction to what type of story this is.
By the way, if you haven't read the original book then I'll just warn you that this book will get really REALLY dark!
