-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. > Author's Note > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. > Find The Magic: The Dazzlings, featuring Peace Poet (song) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Verse 1: The Dazzlings Where do we go?

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!!!

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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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

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

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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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!!!
