> A poem for christmas > by PheonixCircle > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > I wish us a pony christmas > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was the night before christmas and the moon was up high The night was beautiful but bedtime was nigh So I took off my clothes, lay down and closed my eyes The calm came in slowly while my consciousness slowly died At the time I woke up I first wasn't aware That I was evidently no longer there Where I had laid myself to get me some rest And I have to assume that it was for my best I stood, yes I was laying in my bed not anymore In a town square with a lovely tree in it's core A christmas tree full of ornaments and light In a colorful glow and overhelming in it's height The snow was falling, oh, how happy I was Everything was white, all here and across The frozen river where small traces remained Of children skating, much happyness gained Just then I realized this was not my home I nervously looked around and found myself alone I was wearing the clothes I had took off before I wished I was home, just not here anymore And then I saw a light from a window so near How could I have missed that, was it just out of fear? I slowly approached it, andglanced through the glass And what I then saw made my heart seem to pass What sat there were ponies, to drink and to eat And simply with much luck I happened to meet A pony well known to almost everyone of you It was a small Pegasi, it was Scootaloo And with her were Applebloom and Sweetie Belle young And with them even more, but none of them among The mane six I mean, with their glory and might And suddenly I wished for an eternal night I went on, didn't want to disturb the young fillies And I somehow felt a little bit silly But it didn't matter, I feared their reaction For we and them normally have no connection. I walked back to the place I appeard And suddenly I felt extremly weird I was afraid, I might be stuck in this place What should I do in this very case? I started to shiver, but cold caused it not it was out of fear, my heart was a knot I fell to my kness and started to cry I felt so lost I just wanted to die That must have been visible for the next thing I heard Was the Voice of a pony, in the air, like a bird Oh my, said the voice, why are you so sad? Come follow me, it can't be this bad I looked in the sky and saw yellow fur flying And I simply kept calm, just went on crying But I stood up and followed Fluttershy home My mind cleared, I was no longer alone But we went to a different place than I thought Then the place where I finally have been brought Wasn't her place, but Twillights giant library tree Where we were greeted by highly nervous rarity Fluttershy should already have been there And I just wanted to excuse us to her As she noticed me and started to scream That it should stop, this horrible dream At my tears you could immediatly tell I was hurt, for I was also not to well She stopped the moment the others arrived And uncomfortable silence again revived At least until Pinkie Pie started to sing Flutteshy took me into her left wing And the others asked from where I had come But, still tired, I needed to rest some So we went in, I sat down and let out a sigh Wiped both my eyes with my hands dry And started with the simples explanation Of humans, my world, and their own creation They looked at me, and kept silent as I spoke And slowly the wall between us broke They started to ask some questions to me And answered my own, how it always should be After an hour we finished our talk We all went out for a nice walk We walked into the direction I came But now the feeling wasn't the same I felt happy in this odd situation Even if I had no explanation How I had earned me this much luck But in this nice moment I gave no buck We ate all together it was nice There were apples deserving a price In different styles like pie or salad Somewhere I heard a comforting ballad I didn't know time was running out Until I heard an imperativ shout Female and strong and fearful in one My time to return has finally come Celestia and Luna stood inside the door Smiling with joy, like we just before They entered and were greeted with bliss And I asked myself 'What did I just miss?' I couldn't grasp why they would be here Canterlot couldn't be considered to be near They sat down, starting to explain their presence Me being here was one of their presents They had decided that a human with believe In their existence was rightful to recieve A night with the ponies they admire this much To recieve a memory through hears and through touch I looked at the clock and started to comprehend How I came her, I would never understand But memories I had made with my eyes and my ears And my hands, which had again to wipe tears. They both stood before me and wished me farewell The mane six too, And anybody could tell How broken my heart was to leave them like this Would I ever again feel this bliss I saw a bright light and the next thing I knew That nothing of this could have been true I was lying in my bed without my clothes on My sadness started to weigh like a ton I prepared myself and noticed a thing That I was wearing a strange ring With the sigils of the sun and the moon And I came to understand it soon It wasn't a dream, but neither reality It seemed very much like harsh insanity But proof was this ring, the sigils on it Which also seemed to perfectly fit I really was happy that I had this dream It was like the most delicious ice cream Since than life only seems bright I wish you all a nice christmas night
