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

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

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

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)
