SURPRISE
After a couple years or so being with Fluttershy, I remembered a lot of my past. When I was alone, in school at Cloudsdale, and seeing my dad...Seeing my...dad...OH! I forgot my promise to him. I promised I'd give him something when I figure out my talent!
It was obvious that I would be giving him some literature. I'll give him a poem. It would mean more to me than a story. Stories are all I usually write. I write poetry once in a blue moon. Maybe less... Fluttershy was attending our foals...That's right, our foals. They were a year old now. Twins. One a colt, and one a little filly. They had bright blue coats, and soft pink manes like Fluttershy's. The colt was named Treble Cleff. The filly was named after my sister. Scarlet Rose.
After observing my family, I got to the poem for my dad.
I see you in stone, and ink
but your name, is all it speaks
the frame your bound to and paused
Only tells me a split second, not how it was caused
The dust gathers, and time passes
but love lasts, and pain crashes
the blood in me will still love on
Even though they say your gone
Physically, you're not there
But in my heart, I feel it tear
In pony heaven, whatever you do
Scarlet, is right next to you
Even though the past has been bad
I still wish I was there, to call you "Dad"
I cried a little after reading it back. Scarlet was buried right next to him. I'd have to write her something as well.
Sister, I wish you to see
The stallion that I've grown to be
Living life day by day
With no sadness in my way
I see the colors not just gray
The colors brighten every day
the family name will continue
And every day, I'll miss you
I hope you're with dad, having fun
Now there's two, not just one
Remember me, for I have a gift
I'm living the life you wanted me to live
You've given me hope, no matter where it goes
Because you always were the perfect rose
I was proud of this one too. I put them in separate bottles, and actually addressed them with t tag and such. I gave Scarlet a rose in hers. I also put a picture of me as a kid in Dad's.
I took my foals, and Fluttershy to their graves. I told them that my dad was their grandpa, and that Scarlet is their aunt. I put the bottles right beside the graves. I told them about Scarlet, and I couldn't really describe Dad, other than what my mom told me. that he was caring, and loving.
As life progresses, keep old promises. They could mean something to you later, no matter how simple they are.
I'm gonna miss Scarlet, but if it weren't for her, my life wouldn't be anything like this at all...
I even went to Cloudsdale to visit mom. She was getting old. No too old, but old enough to notice. I told my foals that we'd be meeting Grandma. I knocked on the door, and when she opened it, she burst into tears with the biggest hug possible. We were invited in, and I told her about my life after I left, and introduced her to my foals, and acquainted her with Fluttershy a bit more, seeing as she didn't know her all too well. It was an emotional day, however, it made me feel like all the crap I went through was all worth it. I would have never achieved anything if everything didn't happen the way it did. As painful as it was, I'm glad it worked out.......
