Writing rhyming poetry about ponies and creatures in Equestria, and more.

I'm writing rhyming poetry about many ponies and creatures in the world of Equestria and more. (including Equestria Girls). I will be writing many poems of each chapter. This is where my rhyming poetic journey begins.

Warning: Expect some explicit language.

My Poetic Journey Begins

As I get my pens, parchment, and more in my saddle bags
Hoping this trip won't be a drag
But I must carry on, and prepare for the mission
Being a freelance poet is not an easy position

As a unicorn exploring all of Equestria
I write about the princesses Luna and Celestia
And of course Princess Twilight Sparkle and the Elements of Harmony
Along with Spike, Starlight Glimmer, and more I go to see

My inspiration comes from the one and only Zecora
Rhymes like a enchanting story book from a fairy tale Pandora
I don't rhyme while I talk, but I will write a rhyme
That will be my way to tell the happenings in my time

I finished packing, and exited my home
Originally from Manehattan, but Ponyville is where I roam
Made a lot of friends, ponies, dragons, and more
Learning more cultures for my rhyming corArabia

I might see Starswirl and the Pillars
If I go past the Term, the true ice cold killer
Yakyakastan, Griffonstone, Trottingham, and more
Might see Pinkie at SugarCube Corner store

I also have to stop at Sweet Apple Acres
Sugar Belle is also one of the best bakers
Her and Pinkie Pie, along with Applejack, share recipes
And their food is like a treasure from the seapony seas

Fluttershy is also a good friend and cook
Plus, I have to stop and see Twilight about a few books
Even a couple of comics from Spike
A few I'll read again that I'll like

Before I leave, who else would I like to see
Ah yes, Starlight and the Great and Powerful Trixie
And go to music sessions with Vinyl and Octavia
Before they go on tour in Saddle Arabia

Then help Rainbow Dash and the Wonderbolts
To be the best, whether you're a filly or colt
Mare or stallion, just be yourself and be true
There's a bright light that will shine within you

I better get going to the train station
If I need to go to multiple nations
And I need to stop by Lyra and Bon-Bon's store
For some more snacks for my hunger core

I'm glad I have the message book to contact Sunset
From the other world, which I haven't been to yet
Starlight told me all about the other side
When I have time, I'll go along for the ride

So many places, so many choices
Also making new friends and hearing new voices
Though one being that would get me lost
Would be Discord, the Element of Chaos

Can't forget about Shining Armor and Princess Cadence
Along with Flurry Heart, Sunburst, and all the Crystal Empire residents
I'd love to go there again
Plus, I love the Crystal trends

Sometimes I feel nostalgic
Manehattan is my home, where I got my poetic logic
Though in Ponyville, it's quiet and peaceful
It has its own kind of beautiful wonderful

If Mama can see how well I turned out
She'd love to meet my friends, and how great my life is about
I'm not a rapper, but I write like one
And the hobby is fun, in both the night and the sun

I sigh at the memories from back then
I can remember the good and bad way back when
Back home was a struggle in the ghetto
But I'm here with a smooth glow and flow

I finally got to the front door
Look back at my home once more
Then I closed the door, and clicked the lock
And head to the train station through the street blocks

I said hi to every pony and creature
As I admire each of their features
Without any prejudice within me
Unfortunately, there will be more of that begins

As I wait for the train to come
I'm kind of nervous, but I'm ready, and then some
I thought of words in my notes already
As it helps me to be calm and steady

Here it comes, as it ceases to a stop
I get on, and find my seat for my flank to drop
I close my eyes to relax
And rest my mind, talking to Princess Luna with dream facts

But which city or country do I stop at
There are so many on this very track
I guess I'll see when I get there
It might be Sire's Hollow to see Fire Light and Stellar Flare

Or Las Pegasus where Flim and Flam
Are still using schemes for their greedy scams
Might be Prance, Apploosa, or Dodge Junction
Where Cherry Jubilee still has the cherry function

Well, I'll know when I get there
It's better than seeing Limestone Pie's glare
It'll be a long time from home
But there will be stories in rhyme that will be told and known

Luckily, I can send letters through Spike and more
Trips will be from the land, the sea, and the air to soar
Now it's time for my adventure to start
And to write my rhymes from my mind and heart

This trip will have its ups and downs
It'll make me have smiles, and have some frowns
But I must have hope and faith
This trip will have a up or down rate

There will be times that feelings will be hurt
Where forgiveness may or may not be a worth
As I'm finishing my first page
Thanks to the talk from the night princess sage

She told me to be myself, and more
You have a gold soul within your core
And with that, my rhyme comes to an end
As my poetic journey begins

There will be happiness and sadness
Along with loneliness and being helpless
But one thing I will do
Is to do the best that I can, that's true

I might find new friends, and maybe love
One of the two might come true, stars above
Now ends the very first rhyming poetry page
From the unicorn stallion pony that could be a rhyming poetic sage.

First Stop: Canterlot (The Stroll)

First Stop: Canterlot (The Stroll)

Canterlot, the city with many ponies that are rich entrepreneurs
Some look at me like I came from the sewers
But there are ponies that I like to see
Donut Joe, Saffron Masala, Fancy Pants, and Fleur de Lis

Along with Rarity, with her Canterlot Boutique, and then some
Sassy Saddles, Photo Finish, and more made me feel more welcomed
Except for a few, including a certain prince
Which I haven't seen in a while since

Anyways, I stopped by to take a little stroll
Later on, I'll stop by the Tasty Treat for a bowl
Then Donut Joe's shop to talk about good times
Whatever story he tells, I'll put then in my rhymes

Then I'll get a few clothes from Rarity's boutique
She and Sassy finds me good wear that is unique
A tux, a dress shirt, even a business suit
Add a fedora, and I'll have that "cool pony" look

Many mares and stallions of high stature
Look at me like I have a bone fracture
Many judge me because of where I'm from
Calling me the "Manehattan Street Rat", and then some

Yeah, I came from the Southside
But I don't judge them, and I have nothing to hide
I found a new way to judge without judging
I'm a friend of Rarity and others, so I'm not budging

I hear some "hay-rumphs" here and there
As long as they stay out of my way, I don't care
Ponies like them always judge a book by the cover
Trying to find ways to make me suffer

Well, back on the strolling topic
And back on the Canterlot logic
Rarity said that I didn't need to pay
But I didn't want to take advantage of her Generosity that way

I paid with bits, a hug, respect, and friendship
As she gave me a kiss on the cheek, and I'll admit
She's an angel, like Spike said
And Rarity's more than I ever read

I finally got to my favorite eating places
And I got full quick in both spaces
I continued my stroll to walk the weight off
But suddenly, I heard a bad cough

I see a unicorn filly looking very sick
I rush to her with my best quick
I asked her, "where are your folks?"
She said, " They're at home, sick like me, and broke"

I gave her as much bits to give her
Then I gave her some of my medicine for her folks and her
I'm surprised that nopony helped her at all
I'd be peeved if they let her beg and crawl

So I took her to the clinic, for a doctor to check her up
She was nice like a cute little pup
I asked the doc how much, and he said, "no charge
You're one great citizen with a heart so large"

Before I left, I went to check on the filly
And I put the blanket on her, 'cause it was a bit chilly
I guess I became her hero and such
What she said warmed my heart, "thank you very much"

The Doc got his assistant to go get her folks
I waited for an hour, and saw them, as they spoke
"We don't have much, but we'll get what we can"
I told them that I'll pay, and I understand

They told me that they use to work at the clinic back then
But the boss that fired them needs a hoof to the chin
The Doc told me that the clinic's under new management
And they got re-hired in the health establishment

They both hugged me for being their savior
This'll teach the former manager for his sour behavior
Both parents went to their daughter, after I said goodbye
I sniffed a little, as I try not to cry

Back on the stroll, I get near the Canterlot Castle
And since I know most of the Royal Guards there, going inside was no hassle
Celestia and Luna where about to leave to Silver Shoals
Which is their retirement resting goal

I need to get there before they leave for their destination
Before they get to their permanent location
I also see Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, and Princess Cadence
As I see other ponies doing more castle maintenance

I say hello to each off my closest friends
As my stroll in Canterlot is at an end
We talked about the adventures in Equestria and more
But I told them that I'm on a freelance poetry tour

And I told them that I'm traveling all over Equestria
This gain an interest from them, more from Celestia
I told them that I'll be gone for months or a year
But I'm going with some bravery and fear

But to be clear, it'll be like an adventure
I can have fun, better than an energy taking centaur
Sure, I'm on the poetry trip on my own
As long as the haters don't get in my zone

My rhymes can be fictional, fun, or serious
But I made a rich pony's wife look very delirious
She knows how to make any pony upset
But too bad her new job isn't important yet

As Celestia and Luna gave me more stuff
Even a magic message book, in case things get too rough
I'm tough, but I have to be very careful
Be calm, be truthful, and the hardest, respectful

After I said my goodbyes, I go on the the next train
I have everything I need to stay sane and maintain
What's my next stop, land, sea, or the sky high
Good thing Twilight and Starlight taught me a spell to fly

Five o'clock, the sun was going down
Meaning Twilight's got it right, now that she's the new ruler in town
The next place, I got to the airport first
I'm flying overseas, former Dragon Lord Torch is doing the sky work

Spike even told me that Torch is almost as fast as Dash
His scales can even take the lightning strike, no wonder he never crashed
Onward to the far east
Will I meet friends or foes that are beast?

Viva Las Pegasus

View Online

Las Pegasus, the city full of chances
Gambles, fame, riches, some have advances
You have gangsters, and other violent groups
That'll have your hoof, if they lose in the success troop

But anyway, I came to see an old friend I known since childhood
And she's popular in my old hood
We met in the first grade
Y'all might know her as Songbird Serenade

That's her true name, along with Rara and Sapphire Shores
All 3 sing like a heavenly choir singing a angelic chorus
Sapphire Shores and Coloratura are my friends too
But I met them before I met Applejack, true

Moving on, Songbird invited me to her concert
and a free backstage pass, it was a great worth
Security guards knew me and welcomed me like a king
That came to see a great friend of mine to sing

One of the guards led me backstage
Hearing fan colts and stallions jealous rage
Then I saw the singing mare in her room, dancing on the rug
She ran towards me with great speed, and gave me a tackle hug

Hidden behind her two-tone bangs, were her beautiful blue eyes
And her genuine smile, every time I see her, was not a disguise
She closed the door, as I thanked her for inviting me
In her own words, "Besides other ponies and creatures, you're another friendliest face I see"

We talked about the good ol' days, like the schools in Manehattan
Her charity concerts, my poetry sessions, everything good that happened
Every album she made, she thanked me for the inspiration
I told her, "And now you're inspiring everyone in every nation"

Songbird is one of the favorites in Equestria
Especially from former Princess Celestia
Her song "Rainbows" was the biggest seller
But there are more songs that are amazing story tellers

We talked for about two to three hours
But I had to get her dressing room, so she can bring up her performing power
I was about to leave, as the guard told me
"You can come back and watch her do her thing, you see"

So I walked around Las Pegasus for about thirty
Then I saw two things that are dirty
The two ponies I saw made me think "damn"
The two sales stallions, Flim and Flam

They scammed me in Ponyville
With a cart with no brakes, that almost killed me down the hill
Speaking of kill, that's what I fell like doing to them
But their lives were already grim

As Starswirl the Bearded gave them both indefinite probation
Working at the Las Pegasus Train Station
As Flim sweeps, and Flam cleans
Five officers gave them heavy surveillance, by any means

Gladmane on the other hoof was doing maintenance
At a casino, fixing slot machines, to improve his advance
He doesn't get paid at a rich high
So all he does is complain and cry

That aside, I did eat me some lunch
The new pastry recipe from Pinkie and Sugar Belle has successfully spread a bunch
After I'm done, I head towards the MGM Grand
Where Songbird sings along with her band

I snuck backstage, even though I should've teleported
One of the security guards had me gratefully escorted
I see the band getting ready to play
For the star that every pony and creature's been waiting for all day

Songbird Serenade, her voice very angelic
Her energy, like her dancers and fans, very energenic
Then, she invited me on stage to dance
I danced a step or two, with the crown and others advance

As the song ends, she said to the crowd
"Peace Poet, everypony!" and cheered out loud
I waved at the crowd, and said my thank you's
While other jealous stallions glare at me, and having violent view

As I went backstage, two stallions come at me with anger
Then one of the guards held one of them back like the Lone Ranger
The other came at me, but with my martial art skills
I knocked him out, while he lost some teeth from his grille

Both stallions are taken by the police
About an hour later, after the concert came to a cease
The guards asked was I alright
I told that I wasn't even breaking a sweat in that so-called fight

Songbird came and hugged me with great worry
She was panting, not just from performing, but with a rushing hurry
Asked me and the guard were we OK
He and both said, "Best thing we did all day"

After that, we all had a concert after party
Everypony in it sipping on Hennessy and Bacardi
Since I don't drink, I kept myself safe
But Songbird sat beside me with great faith

She told me, as she moved her bangs from her eyes
As the sparkle greatly like Luna's night skies
"Thank you for coming to see me sing"
Like I miss my friend doing her amazing thing

It was getting late, I had to go back to the hotel
Songbird kissed me on the cheek, like it was an angels love spell
I kissed her cheek back, and then said good night
Lit up my horn, since it's my only light

Got back in my hotel room, collapsed on my bed
Feeling the softest pillows behind my head
Thinking about the night I had tonight
Songbird's presence was definitely heavenly bright

She does have a husband and daughter
Husband Street Light, and daughter Glistening Water
Later on, I'll get to see them again soon
From my sleep, to the morning, and see them at noon

Where were they from the concert, you asked
Beside me backstage, dancing around, and having a blast
As for the stallions that rushed to get me
They doing community service for breaking probation, you see

I spent a couple of days in the gambling, entertaining town
I enjoyed it, and did not have a frown
Whatever happens in Las Pegasus. stays in Las Pegasus
In the King of Rock 'N Roll's chorus, "Viva, Viva Las Pegasus.

I Lost The Ocean, Part 1 (short poem)

View Online

In Manehattan, I was about fifteen
And I saw the most beautiful Earth mare I've ever seen
Light blue coat, golden mane and tail
Sapphire blue eyes that put me in a spell

She was nice, sweet, and very smart
Not Twilight smart, but a good start
She looks at me, like giving me a potion
With an angelic voice, she said he name was Ocean

Ocean Light, the mare that shines so bright
To me, she'd ever replace Luna's moonlight
We became best friends in Manehattan High
Friends so close, we hate to say goodbye

Ocean had class, like a true royal
She treated me with much respect, and stayed loyal
Like her, I have a lot of friends
Some that are true, and some that pretend

I met her parents, and they were both cool
Even the Dad said, "You're better than the other fools"
To tell you the truth, I was scared to meet them then
But they were both nice, and glad their daughter has a close friend

A month later, Me and Ocean were more than friends
Marefriend and coltfriend, who love each other to the end
We went out on date nights, hang out with loved ones
Though we did have curfews before Celestia's sun

Six months was a great time to be in love
Me and Ocean were inseparable, stars above
Nothing could come between us
Even if we did have a little arguing fuss

Though, I never see her as a "thing", nor a "property"
I treat with great respect and love properly
Like a princess with a graceful castle
Like me, she'll help others with no hassle

I truly Loved her very much
She treated me like a prince, more than Blueblood, and such
Blueblood, that name will start to haunt me
After the terrible sight I'll see.

To Be Continued...

I Lost The Ocean, Part 2

View Online

Six months of love between me and Ocean Light
My heart and souls glow was shining so bright
But then, I was seeing Ocean less and less
When I heard she got a job in Canterlot, which I thought was best

She'll bet more bits then me, I won't complain
Even though, I work at a place where I load the grain
My pay was pretty good
Since me and Daddy live together in the hood

Ocean's job was at Princess Celestia's castle
She's one of the maids, and trying not to get lost was a big hassle
She comes to my home just about once a week
Me seeing her less had my worries at the peak

Though, I understand that her job was an hour away
But then, she started to look different one day
New jewelry, clothes, shoes, and make up
It tells me that I'm failing as a coltfriend, which is a big wake up

But she told, " I know that you're trying your best
To everything you do for me, and you're still the best"
I was glad she said that, but was the sound of her tone
It gave me a frozen chill in my back bone

One day, She told me that she was coming to the park
I was glad, our first date, from dusk to dark
I was wearing my new shirt that said "Friendship Power"
But my happiness started to dwindle, as I wait for her at the midnight hour

I couldn't believe that my marefriend stood me up
Left me there waiting like an abandoned pup
I went home, walking like I had a severe wound
Got home, went to bed, under my sorrow cocoon

The next day, my pop gave me a letter
It was from Ocean, and I felt a little better
The letter said, "Peace, I'm so sorry
I'll make it up to you from my inexcusable tardy"

Though, I did understand that it was hard to get away
From a castle that's served twenty-four seven everyday
So instead of sitting at home, looking like a fool
I'll go to Ocean at her job, to a place that's socially cool

Though I should've explained this from the start
It was something that put a arrow through my heart
For her to have a job at a castle that's cool
She'd had to go to a Canterlot School

Me and Ocean wrote everyday
We write on how our days goes in good or bad ways
But after the date that we were suppose to have
Something in my heart gave my chest a hard jab

On a cloudy day, thanks to the weather Pegasi
I made it to Canterlot, from the balloon that flies the skies
I made it to the school called Canterlot High
As I saw shocked looks from other ponies eyes

Their eyes didn't say unwelcome, they said "not good"
I even heard, "He's not a bad ponies, but how could..."
Didn't finish the sentence, as I continued on
As I have to find out what in Celestia was wrong

Classes didn't start yet, so I went in a classroom
Many gasp was heard, like I was heading for doom
And I did, right in front of me
Something that I dreamt in my head many times, and now I see

A scene that I wished I was missing
Ocean Light and Prince Blueblood, making out, kissing
They both saw me, Ocean's eyes widen in shock
The room went silent, you didn't even hear a pencil fall knock

All the prince did was smirk at me, like a true villain
Standing like the devil with a grin; I feel reality reeling in
Before Ocean spoke, I teleported away
And came outside, with the rain coming downward way

When I came home, I didn't cry, because I knew
Different attitude, different school, and a Royal pony, too
A wanted to give Blueblood a magic blast
And before I did, I want to whoop his ass

But I won't stoop to a low level, not my style
I stayed away from both him and Ocean for more than a mile
The next day, she started sending me apology letters
I read them, but after I finished reading them, I burned them for the better

Yeah, I'm a commoner, with little to no glam
I know I'm not much like a Royal, but damn
She wanted the change for the better
But all she and Blueblood did was becoming a sight of stormy weather

Half of the year was gone, and me and Ocean hadn't talked
But I was on the straight and narrow; writing rhymes on the board with chalk
I forgot about her and her new prince charming
But one day after school, even in a clear day, I sense storm warnings

As I got home, I see the worry on Daddy's face
And I walked inside, my scenario was the worst case
I see my ex Ocean Light, her mom and dad
My good vibes were gone, and the feeling became annoyed with drag

The parents explained that they thought Blueblood was the one
Jumping the gun, they were hoping he'd be their new son
They thought me and Ocean split way
But then she told them the real truth that day

The truth was that she was with Blueblood
That name was like being hit by mud
Her parents wait patiently for her answer with care
That Ocean and Blueblood were in a affair

She cheated on me and lied to me and her parents for months
They heard it before, but still shocked all at once
What she said next would hurt me a little bit
But I stayed calm, trying not to have a wild out fit

She said, "Peace, the truth is, you were just poor
Beneath my standards, and you're not at Blueblood's door
I went with him to be noticed with fame
You held me back, so I couldn't shout out to say your blame

But when I saw you come in the Canterlot classroom
I was afraid to be caught, I thought you'd bring me doom
The last time I saw was that day
I was ashamed to put you in that position that way

The truth is, I used you to get to the prince
And I've been with Blueblood ever since
I've sent you letters to sincerely apologize
But you haven't written back since you saw my lies

A few months after, Blueblood did the same thing, too
He cheated on me, exactly like I did to you
Then I knew how you felt
The pain that I gave you, that you've dealt

I don't blame you for not forgiving me
But I just hope you don't hate me
What I did to you was selfish, heinous, and cruel
I've been like a foal, a childish fool"

Tears were in her eyes, as her words were shaken, but sincere
But I had to make one thing clear
I said to her, "You hurt me really deep
You betrayed me like I was a broken toy, sold for cheap

I loved you with all of my heart, I really did
And you cheated on me, like a spoiled little kid
After everything I've done for you
And I hear it in your voice, loud and true

You used me like a retarded pawn
Like a fin-less whale that won't see the next dawn
How could you be so heartless
Greedy with much want, and so relentless

I gave you my heart and soul
And now I see I was never your goal
You left me abandoned in the forgetful mist
I was sad, confused, and overly pissed

Did you come here, because you slipped off the mound
And now you want to use me as a rebound
My answer is "absolutely not"
You coming in here with a lot of nerve got me hot

I respect your parents, I really do
But you also lied to them, and got them hot, too
My guess is that you lost their trust
You will never get mine, since you made ours bust

So Blueblood dumped you, can't say that I'm surprised
He showed you your own lies you showed me in front of your eyes
As much as I believe in second chances
You don't deserve one, not after your deceiving advances

I treated you like a princess that'd be brighter than Prance
You and I went on top of a building to a slow jam to dance
But I guess that dance was still a dream
Because you didn't like my view of things, it seems

Mister and Misses, I still respect you both
But your daughter just sank my hopeful love boat
I wished that I had more things to say
But please show yourselves out, and be on your way"

I didn't look back after they got out
I calmed down a little, but the heartache was still about
Many moons later, haven't heard from Ocean Light
I don't know if I want to see her in my sight

Right now, I have no love interest
But being single may be lonely, but it's for the best
From that heartbreaking commotion
That is truly how I Lost The Ocean.

Pinkie Party (short poem)

View Online

One night, seeing ponies drinking Hoofcardi
At one of Pinkie Pie's biggest parties
Gilda was dancing, shaking her tail feather
Gabby was doing the moonwalk under great night weather

Applejack and Big Mac brought in more cider
Scootaloo was behind Rainbow Dash on her new glider
RD took the whole barrel full
AJ brought out her lasso, her number one tool

Spike, Rarity, and Gabby made a triple dance
Spike's night was gonna be his greatest advance
Listening to DJ PON3 and Octavia
Sapphire Shores, Songbird Serenade, and even Celestia

Luna kept the cakes hidden
From Celestia, since she was the diet and forbidden
The party was far from being bored
Especially when you have Discord

Twilight was talking to Flash Sentry
As Rainbow made an awesome entry
Apple Bloom was hanging with Tender Taps
As they both are dancing in shoes that made taps

Shining Armor was a party machine
With his wife Cadence, as they're the main scene
They saw the awkward look from
As they saw the nonsensical dance from Twilight was above norm

Pinkie was dancing with Cheese Sandwich
They both a robot, without a glitch
Even went old school, the Running Horse
Which was my favorite dance, of course

As for me, I dance with a fight style
Tai Chi, non-violent, like Gummy the non-crocodile
Finished listening to Pandora
I started to dance with rhyming friend, Zecora

The party night was fantastic
Good music and friends, all were ecstatic
Which means I'm out of here
As I say "peace" to all my friendly peers.

What up, y'all! Peace Poet here, and I wanna say thank you for, I guess, liking what I do. But I wanna ask y'all a question, what would y'all say if I wrote rap verses in MLP songs? There are some I wanna write, but I'm not sure if y'all like them, or not. And don't worry, there won't be any foul language in the lyrics that I'll write. And if you think it's a good idea, you can comment some songs that I'll put rap lyrics in. If not, then that's OK. At least it was an idea. Plus, I wanna write a story based on other anime with MLP characters, which I'll write probably later this year. I know that this poetry book, Poetry Is Magic, is not as good as any of y'all think, but all I have to do is try! I love writing rhyming poetry, and I hope you feel the same. Though, not everyone likes poetry all that much. I'm open for suggestions for this poetry book. Thanks for your time.

B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Equestria)

View Online

Princess Celestia and Luna lived over a thousand years
To see happy laughter, hateful anger, and heartbreaking tears
Alicorns live longer than other ponies and creatures
Dragon have a longer lifespan with their mystical features

Discord is a draconequus, King of Chaos, also immortal
He live for eternity, and opens many portals
A trickster that'll get you in or out of the zone
But he's like Pinkie Pie, got a humorous funny bone

Then we get to five more Alicorn mares
Who has the power to do it all, but with care
The Crystal Empire has two of the kind
Two that have love in their hearts and in their minds

Princess Cadence and Flurry Heart from the Empire
Are the future of the Empire, with the love desire
Flurry heart is the future to rule
And she'll be better than Blueblood, the number one prince fool

Twilight Sparkle, the Princess of Friendship
Shows everypony friendship lessons for many with less grips
With the help of her friends and family
She'll even teach lessons to her enemies (already have)

Anyways, my instructions to before leaving Equestria
As many know, none will live longer than Luna and Celestia
We make our mark to prove what we've done
Good or bad, we did something under the sun

Like Spike the dragon, dragon can live a little longer
Just like Alicorns, dragons grow and can be stronger
Earth, Unicorn, and Pegasus ponies have shorter lifespans
Many will make their mark as good as they can

Just live life to the fullest
Like Rarity always said if you have confidence, "you got this!"
Some may not live longer than Luna and Celestia
But you have Basic Instructions Before Leaving Equestria.

The Other Side: Rarity, featuring Peace Poet (song)

Verse 1: Rarity
Sitting here with my head in my hands
Ideas that come and go
Sketching my heart out, nothing will turn out
Everything seems so-so

I've been before, and I know I can
Do it if I try
But why, oh why
Do you stumble before you fly

Pre-verse: Rarity
My wheels keep turnin' (oh, oh!)
My fire's still burnin' (oh, oh!)
'Cause right now I'm learnin' (oh, oh!)
How to get on the other side

Chorus: Rarity
It's a game of waitin' (Hey, hey!)
Anticipatin' (Hey, hey!)
But I keep creatin' (Hey, hey!)
So I can get to the other
Get to the other side

(Get to the other side, hey!)
(Hey!)
(Get to the other side, hey!)
So I can get to the other
Get to the other...

Keep on believin' I'll be achievin'
The harder that I go
Don't really know how, I won't give up now
Until I steal the show

With time, it gets better, I'll be a transetter
Doin' it my own way
Hey, hey, hey!
I won't stop 'til I seize the day

Pre-verse: Rarity
My wheels keep turnin' (oh, oh!)
My Fire's still burnin' (oh, oh!)

So I can get to the other

You with the sapphire eyes will hop over the impossible
Reachin' to the top, yellin' "it's never impossible!"
Your Generosity shows great sportsmanship
Show the true nature of the Magic of Friendship

Your name will be on every flyer and billboard
All will love you and you'll be adored
You even made me a fly lookin' tux
That made me look like a million bucks

Rarity, a name that everyone will know
In the fashion biz with a bright glow
One project done, and you're on to make more
So many will buy your beautiful merch from your store

I'm proud to see you make great success
Friends and family are givin' you many bless
I know that you'll do your very best on this ride
And I know that you'll get to the other side!

Spoiled Bitch (Diss)

View Online

Formally known as Spoiled Milk
With a heart that's black, the flowers wither with a violent tilt
She married Filthy Rich to be better than all
Even better than her daughter, who stands a few hooves tall

Filthy's a good and kind pony to all
But the wife can make him feel and look small
By her charm and good looks
Her glare even burns some of Twilight Sparkle's books like a crook

With her evil smirk, she kicks dirt at the hard working
Walks away with a sway, even does a few twerking
She may stand Canterlot Castle tall
But there was a wall that'll make her look small and fall

Moons ago, she had an affair with Blueblood
That Rarity said, "he's a cur and a dud filled with mud"
When Filthy found out, he was having a fit
One night, barged in Blueblood's room, the aura was "oh shit"

Filthy took the one and only course
Without hesitation, gave Spoiled Rich a divorce
Everypony was shocked at Diamond Tiara of what she did
She slapped her mama hard, and not regretting what she did

Spoiled was smirking, but not for long
The bits she wanted from the divorce was long gone
The she thought of marrying Blueblood, and closed the case
But after what he did to Rarity, Celestia halted his pace

Blueblood was stripped from being a prince
And he's been a janitor at Tartarus ever since
Spoiled was a maid there
When I heard about it, I went for a visit to be fair

I told Spoiled that Filthy has re-married again
And found a mare that's in the kind and innocent trend
I asked her if she remembered Pinkie Pie
Filthy Rich is now married to Marble Pie

Spoiled looked shocked at who Filthy was with
She shrugged it off, thinking it was a lying myth
I showed her a picture of Filthy, Diamond, and Marble being happy
After Spoiled made their lives crappy

I also told her that Diamond called Marble mom
She shed tears, after her affair with Blueblood was stupid and dumb
Marble has her bits, and now she's rich
And I told her one last time, "That's what you get, Spoiled Bitch!"

I know what you want in Poetry Is Magic, and I hope we think the same thing. I'm thinking about writing in some rap battles in the poetry story. I know what you're about to ask, "Will there be a Peace Poet vs. Zecora rap battle?" Answer...YES!!! There will be some rap battle chapter that I want to write, but there are so many MLP characters. So here's the deal; Zecora's already on top of the list, so if you have a MLP character that you want Peace Poet to battle with, put them in the comment section. It'll be like Epic Rap Battles of History, but with ponies, dragons, kirins, changelings, and more. Do you think it's a good idea? Let me know in the comments below. Until the next rhyme, Deuce!

Freestyle Battle #1: Peace Poet vs Zecora

View Online

Zecora (raps)

My friend from the southern part of Manehattan
You will fall apart from my rhyming plan
My plan is to beat you in this battle
Hopefully your brain isn't like a can that rattles

Fore score more than seven years ago
I've been rhyming with natural glow and flow
I know that you're good, but I might as well call you a rookie
If I win, I'll give you a cookie

Sure, you have a poem story called "Poetry Is Magic"
But I'll be the victor, as your loss will be so tragic
Though you're like me, poetic and wise
But you'll see me walk away in front of your eyes

You're dealing with a rhyming zebra with fame
And it would be a crying shame
That you will lose to the zebra MC
As you can't cut it close, you see

Peace Poet (raps)
Now wait just a minute, Zecora
You're not exactly on Pandora
I know that you make any kind of potions
Though I'm sorry I didn't use your cheap lotions

But this a battle, and you're rhymes are a poison joke
Weak and frail, like Trixie's magic smoke
I'll blow you away like Starlight did Discord
My name will be on every Equestria billboard

It's time I bring the heat, towards your defeat
Victory taste so sweet, your loss, not so neat
Though if I have to say that I rhyme like a hawk
Like Rainbow Dash's Rainboom messing up your mohawk

Please believe when my rhymes can walk the walk
Talk the talk, while you're erased like chalk
Though I gotta say, you hang on real well
Like a spell, your word will do one thing, fail!

My Flowing Rhymes

View Online

My rhymes are flowing like a smooth river
Taking care of me like a caregiver
Where there are no enemies seeking in
It's like I'm the Last of the Ponicans

Anyway, in my poetic mind, I have more to say
In this sixteen is what I lay
For other ponies that look down on me and others
Kiss my brown flank from me and my sister and brothers

I know you're high society, and you look down in advance
A pony like Fancy Pants like my rhyming dance
He and other ponies told me to keep rising high
As hi-so ponies blood pressure reaches to the sky

Y'all know me from Southside Manehattan
Y'all just have to look and listen in
Low society ponies can make it, too
And if you don't like it, then your wish came true!

A Shine That Shimmers and Glimmers (song) featuring Starlight Glimmer and Sunset Shimmer

View Online

Sunset Shimmer: (sings) Verse 1

I know that friendships come and go
In my old terms, just go with a flow
A flow that is a path of positivity
So we can walk away from negativity

I know after a fight, it's hard to forgive
But you have to go to the right prerogative
We must have the right thoughts, and move
Before what you have with that person is gone.

Chorus: Sunset Shimmer

I know that life has its smoothness and tremors
But you have a shine that shimmers and glimmers
I know that friendships will have rocky starts
But don't let love be removed from your heart

Starlight Glimmer: (sings) Verse 2

I always want things to stay equally
But we all must face reality
Friends and family are there for you
No matter what, their love is true

Believe in them, and believe in yourself
Love and friendship is there if you need help
The Magic of Friendship changed my point of view
And I'm sure it'll help you, too.

Chorus: Starlight Glimmer

I know that life has its smoothness and tremors
But you have a shine that shimmers and glimmers
I know that friendships will have rocky starts
But don't let love be removed from your heart

Sunset Shimmer (Starlight Glimmer) (sings) Hook

We know that forgiveness will take some time
(It will take some encouragement to give you that shine)
Family and friends will be there for you
(All are there for you will be fair and true)

Peace Poet: (raps)

It's time to get in the friendship zone
I know you're hesitant, but you're not alone
Believe me, I know making friends can be difficult
But when you make a friends, it'll have a good result

The Magic of Friendship is like walking on clouds
And then you glide over them with confidence, and feeling proud
Though mistakes will be made
But once you make up for them, you'll be paid

Paid in kindness, generosity, honesty and loyalty
Full of magic and laughter, and be treated like royalty
You felt the touch that you wanna feel
The love and friendship around you is real

Don't fall off the positive track
Or the road will have that negative crack
Friendship and love have that special view
A shine that shimmers and glimmers within you.

Chorus: Starlight and Sunset (4x)

I know that life has its smoothness and tremors
But you have a shine that shimmers and glimmers
I know that friendships will have rocky starts
But don't let love be removed from your heart.

Walking With The Sun

View Online

One day, I was walking in the streets of Canterlot
It was pretty hot under the sun, I kid you not
Rainbow Dash and the rest of the Pegasi took a day off in from the skies of Equestria
Then on the bench in front of castle, I see Princess Celestia

She looked bored, and was ready to go back in the castle
And when she saw me, she teleported to where I was without a hassle
I asked her honestly why she was sitting bored out of her mind
She said, "I was done with my duties for today, and thought time with myself would be kind

But alas, I had nothing else to do
I might take me a little nap, I tell you true"
Then, an idea popped in my head
And I hope the Princess would like the idea, instead of boredom and dread

I told her, "I'm going to the industrial park for my walk
If you want, you can join me so we can walk and talk
You can tell me about fun things and more
That way, the fun will be back in your heart, and no bore"

So we walked and talked about her filly hood
About her fun times with Luna and more, like a filly should
Hide and seek, playing games, using imaginations
And many more fantastic sensations

The real fun was with Starswirl
To Celestia and Luna, one of their favorite ponies in the world
Besides their own mom and dad
Which are still the best parents they ever had

But it was then the talk went from good times to bad
And it was the worst feeling the Sun Alicorn ever had
It was about overshadowing her younger sibling
Which is where all the dire consequences Luna will bring

That's where the arguments came from little to heated
It was where Luna filled her heart with jealousy, envy, and Celestia can't defeat it
A tear feel from her eye, as I know that soon
She would talk about the wicked Nightmare Moon

They fought with magic and more
But the Sun Princess had one more thing in store
The gems that she had to use instantly
Those gems were the Elements of Harmony

With a powerful attack, she blast at the Moon of Darkness
As she banished her to the moon itself, where Nightmare Moon will face loneliness
Luna was there for a thousand years
And as the story ended, Princess Celestia was in tears

I stopped walking and gave her a hug for comfort
Celestia was shocked by my action, but it had a worth
The Royal Guard was going to come and get me from the sobbing princess
But saw that I was comforting her, they stopped and looked on to rest

The pearl white Alicorn was sobbing loudly, as she held me tight
I did the same, as I thought comforting Celestia was the thing I did right
A few minutes went by, she finally calmed down
As we both moved back, I looked up at her, and at me, she looked down with no frown

She said, "Thank you for the walk and talk, Peace
Though I wished this wasn't near a cease"
As we were at the end of the trail
From a cliff, I see the train coming down the rails

The Guards were wait for the princess, and one of them said
"Thank you for being there for the princess, sonny", and he patted my head
Celestia hugged me again, said, "Thank you again, it was bliss"
And to my shock, on my cheek was a kiss

Truthfully, the walk with Princess Celestia was great
And many things I've heard from her, I can actually relate
I'd definitely walk and talk with her again, and soon
And next time, I'll walk with the former Nightmare Moon.

Shining With The Moon

View Online

One night under the full moon
The evening had a lunar tune
As I see the Princess of the Night
Like Celestia, Princess Luna is a beautiful sight

She asked me to join her in a night stroll
In the castle hall, where she tells me about foals
Foals' dreams of being like their hero, parents, and more
So, their achievements can be seen and soar

Anyway, Luna and I talked about her life with her sister
While being jealous of her popularity, she missed her
Banished to the moon for over a thousand years
Full of sadness, anguish, and depressing tears

Luna loves Celestia so much, with a hoof touch
She enjoys her energy, laughter, comfort, and such
Luna had to learn fast about the modern Equestria era
But Luna still shines bright like her black twinkling tiara

We both enjoyed each other's company
Her words are like an enlightening symphony
She talked about fun things with her sister and friends
We both laughed with heart with no hint of pretend

The laughter stopped, and I knew it would so soon
That Luna would tell me about Nightmare Moon
She told me how she was envious of Celestia with much jealousy
Luna stated, "I just wanted everypony to notice me"

Nightmare Moon wanted eternal night
And from the Night Princesses face, she regrets that thought, along with the sight
But thanks to Twilight Sparkle and her friends
Nightmare Moon's rampage came to a victorious end

Getting use to a modern Equestria was a little bit of a struggle
But the good thing was that Celestia was there for an embrace huddle
To help Luna out with not just her sisterly assistance
But with the Element Bearers to increase Luna's existence

I understand Luna's excruciating pain
Like being outside in the severe storm with heavy rain
Her fears were like mine, afraid of being rejected
Putting up a strong front with no fear detected

I told Luna, "Celestia shines by day, you shine by the night
Both of you, in my opinion, are beautifully bright
In mind, body, soul, and strength
And can do many things in any lengths"

Tears show in the eyes of a midnight blue Alicorn
With a smile that is truly adorn
She gave me a hug with soothing bliss
And on the cheek, Princess Luna, gave me a kiss

But to my surprise, I'm not in the dreamscape
As I try to calm down my heartrate
Luna giggled at my expense
But patted my head, to calm me from being tense

She escorted me to the exit of the castle
Like Celestia, being with Luna was no hassle
She gave me one more hug, and said, "Thank you for the talk
And I'm glad to have another friend like you with me on the walk"

I said, "You're very welcome", and was on my way
As I went back home before night becomes day
The sun might come up soon
But tonight, I was Shining With The Moon.

Unicorn Stallion with a Secret

View Online

Many things happen in Stallion Island
Some good, most bad, they got the file in
I had a family and friends that supported me
But they took bullied hits that were meant for me

I apologized to them, but it wasn't enough
I couldn't let them suffer, so I packed up my stuff
They were worried, but I told them that it's the only way
I couldn't stand seeing them hurt because of me day by day

Week by week, month by month, year by year
I'm a coward running away from my fears
I'm ashamed for not facing them head on
Bullies broke my spirit and soul, so they got their wish, I'm gone

My fam and friends said their goodbyes before I left
While other ponies gave me hateful glares of death
But I vowed to come back and change the place
And save my family and friends from that awful and disgraceful place

My Ponyville friends don't know my true secret
I wasn't a true Unicorn, but the camouflage spell was needed
My friend that's a Unicorn taught me this spell
And convinced me to leave from that prejudice hell

No, I wasn't born a Unicorn pony
Before you say that I'm a changeling, you're far wrong, homie
I'm something else, but still have Unicorn pony features
Only my family and friends know what I am, not other ponies and creatures

I'll tell you what I am later in this book
And believe me, you'll be lightning shook
Prepare yourself when I reveal it
Because I'm a Unicorn Stallion with a Secret.

Far Away from the Glittering City

View Online

I move on from the city life
So I can start anew, in the new light
On the right track, staying on the positive lane
Or the railroad within the Friendship Express train

From the city of Manehattan, to the town of Ponyville
From the city lights, to the shining stars I see on top the hill
City has what the town don't
Town has what the city won't

Big differences between the two
Both will treat you kind and/or blue
Different communities, but great opportunities
I love Ponyville, far away from the glittering city

I Gave You Power (Sword)

View Online

I'm a blade that can't control myself
All I do is harm or shorten your health
Don't even give a damn about your wealth or not
But you're gonna wish that you did get shot

When I'm unsheathed, Tatarus is unleashed
I'm all about war, to hell with peace
Your lifeforce is ceased, heart stopped beating
I don't play by the rules, I'm not fair, I love cheating

Defeating those, whether they're good or bad
My wielder is just the best job he or she ever had
I felt like I'm invincible, my speed is incredible
None can beat me, I'm untouchable

Lovable or not, it's mine and the wielder duty to slay
Stallion, mare, filly, colt, foal, any pony, any day
Even dragons and other creatures
Many more with magical and strong features

I can't apologize, I'm a weapon, a tool
You can call me a curse, a blade for a fool
I'm cool, because I have no emotions
And right now, I'm about to cut down an Alicorn that's a walking love potion.
Damn!

Fluttering in the Kindness Zone

View Online

In the zone with Fluttershy
The kindest Pegasus I've ever known, why?
Cause she's helped me through the toughest times
When other ponies and creatures see it as crimes

Fluttershy and her friends are the Elemental Rehab
Like the bulls horns, I have to grab
Life tightly, so I can keep being the best
That all see me, just being me, passing the test

Her soft and sweet voice is what calms me down
Don't even care if Angel Bunny gives me a frown
Harry the Bear helps me be strong
Yes, other critters help me too, this is not wrong

I help Fluttershy out at her animal sanctuary
Snips the colt uses the shovel for animals' "results" that really vary
I was refreshed and reborn into a new "being"
I also enjoy Fluttershy's singing

I write this to Fluttershy as a thank you
For being a great friend and teacher, very true
Thanks to you, I know that I'm not alone
As I will stay inside the Kindness Zone.

The Soul Stealer

View Online

Tirek, the one that's a soul stealer
Magic that gives him strength and is a fate sealer
Grows bigger and stronger of the magic he take
The centaur grows big as a hydra with heavy quakes

Under the hooves of every pony and more
Fear enters the minds of some to the core
But his reign of terror ends the Power of Friendship
Princess Twilight Sparkle and friends ends Tirek's evil mischief

As they took away the power of the centaur beast
His terrorizing reign of power has been ceased
Everyone has their magic back
Tiek has become small and weak of the strength he lacks

Into Tartarus he went, as he was hellbent on
Getting revenge on Equestria and so on
As he was defeated by the Friendship Welders
What will be next for the Soul Stealer?

Manehattans Undercover

View Online

In Stallion Island, ponies be beefing about
The way others be in the way and all that clout
But it feel like Windigoes are flying in
While three nations in one spot start to sin

Let me investigate the way it goes
Doing it way better than cops and pros
Bros act like gangsters in the movies
But soon karma be within their soul, true key

Stealing from the poor, not just from the door
But goes on the inside and want more
Later in the night, I set traps
Which they got caught, with their brain having mind gaps

Manehattan cops come and arrest them thieves
I gave them information that they believe
That they were the Bit Bandits
When the cops took the away, one hollered "DAMMIT!!"

Gave me more bits as a reward
But I gave the bits to a charity, as my mind was like a sword
To all the ponies and creatures that are greedy bit lovers
You'll never who Manehattans Undercover.

Window Elevator

View Online

I, spy with my poetic eye
See a mare my age looking sad and done cried
I didn't mean to pry, but I asked "what's wrong?"
She said without looking at me, "with a stupid stallion for too long"

Then I said, "I know you don't know me
But if it helps, you can tell me in the elevator, see"
"OK", she said and explained that he cheated
With five mares, I was dumbfounded at his concreted

Heart and soul to betray her heart
This mare was torn up, but I'm gonna restart
Her broken heart, and tell her that I was in the same boat
Years ago, but I moved on like the GOAT

As we looked outside of the window elevator
To see Luna's night sky was the best motivator
The elevator stopped at the top floor
As we talked for a bit, the mare felt a bit better, as the door

Opened, she told me with a smile "Thank you for the talk"
"You're very welcome", as she kissed me on the cheek, and off she walk
A broken heart takes a long time to heal
But when you finally find happiness and love, it's truly a wonderful and done deal.

Haytona 500 (song) featuring HOOF-STARR

View Online

Hyper Active: (raps)

Wake to the early risers
Advisors doing more than supervisors
As the bosses look up at the sunrise
They know that later on will be black skies

When they start work, it'll be hard
Like winning a Royal Flush with extra cards
Hype's gonna be DY-NO-MITE!!!
All other workers be keeping their P's and Q's tight

Nevertheless, they make bits
While HOOF-STARR keeps making hit
Peace Poet got that poetic flow
If you don't know, now you know

Rainbow Dash is getting ready for a race
So is Spitfire, and they both have that rapid pace
Lightning Dust is that ace that wanna win, no matter what
Victory is her lunch in her gut.

Peace Poet: (raps)
No doubt, Hype, and the race just started
But who'll have the best strategy over the outsmarted?
Two hundred laps, millions of flaps
Crew chiefs being the God's of the maps

Dust starts to bump every pony
Even her own mama, and her mama called her a phony
Three laps to go, Dust bumps Spitfire as she spins out
Falls on the ground, Spitfire glares at Dust breaking through clouds

Dust goes after Dash, as her crew chief said
"HIT IT!!", and Dash went full speed ahead
But Dust drafts right behind her
Until Dust hit a duck in her way, even scratched some of her fur

One lap to go, and Dash was thirty ponies ahead
Dust yells from behind her, "YOU'RE DEAD!!!!"
But the blue Pegasus made one last zoom
And won with her famous Sonic Rainboom

More than sixteen, but Dash wins the race
As Mama Dust was whooping her girl at a rapid pace
But the Haytona 500 came to a close
As Applejack gave Dash an apple like it was a winning rose.
