88 Lines about 44 Ponies
With apologies to The Nails. Really, guys. I’m sorry. =)
Sweetie was a gentle foal
Who wanted a mark on her end
Scootaloo was rough and tumble
On the same quest with her friends
AppleBloom was AJ’s sis
But had a bow ‘stead of a hat
Rarity raised Sweetie Belle
And owned a psychopathic cat
Twilight was a friendless gal
Who got sent down to Ponyville
Fluttershy, a pegasus
She freaked out when a bird was ill
Pinkie had a special way
Of turning life into a song
Applejack, who couldn’t lie
Was as gentle as she was strong
Zecora was a zebra-type
The ponies were scared of her wrath
Aloe owned a spa in town
And had the ‘poison-joke cure’ bath
Lotus worked there with her sis
Her hoofrubs done with loving care
Miss Mayor called upon her skill
And left a very happy mare
Mrs. Cake was happy to
Help with parties, big and small
Mr. Cake stuck with his wife
He didn’t mind the work at all
Trixie was a unicorn
Who was both Powerful and Great
Derpy Hooves, who had a foal
She had to go, the post was late
Luna was a lonely gal
Who spent existence cloaked by night
Celestia her older sis
Reveled in the sun’s pure light
Soarin’, colt, who loved to eat
Was never ever satisfied
Dash? She came and went so fast
She didn’t even say goodbye
Spitfire had Rainbow’s dream job
A Wonderbolt down to her core
Dinky was a little foal
Who couldn’t love her mommy more
Snips had a tendency to rush
Into ideas that brought him down
Snails was slow, but a good friend
Who always helped reverse his frown
Big Macintosh thought life was simple
A farmhorse with nothing to prove
Granny Smith, with her bad hip
Preferred a rocker to her hooves
Braeburn was a country gent
Apple-loosa he did proud
Bluegrass was another one
Defended it with pie and plow
Lyra was a grand performer
Gifted with an artist’s touch
Bon-Bon was the one who loved her
And every brony knows how much
Colgate, temptress, liked to tease
Young fillies with an eager brush
Berry Punch’s claim to fame
Was as Ponyville’s premier lush
Promontory, mighty stallion
Pulled the western-bound express
Steamer ran directly after
Never showing sign of stress
Evening Star, third engineer
Was blind to the meaning of fear
Coltrane, stoic, ever running
Always bringing up the rear
Silver Spoon, a spoiled brat
Thought her cutie mark was great
Diamond Tiara, her best friend
Mocked others when their marks were late
Twist found she liked peppermint
And bee-girl dresses, see the pic?
Cherilee would not approve
Of all the ‘hot for teacher’ fic.
Carrot Top, so generous
For others keeps her icebox full
Photo Finish works da magiks
For her fans she breaks the rules
Sapphire Shores, pony of pop
Her vocalizing glorious
Vinyl Scratch, DJ PON-3
Please PMV this song for us

I think the line about Cherrilee is the best one.
Maybe I'm just ignorant about poesie, but did you really rhyme satisfied with goodbye? Welp, not like I could do it better. :P
Awesome little thing.
This is excellent, and you are excellent. In fact, you are twice as excellent for having used "lush" as a noun.

The original song takes similar / identical liberties with the rhyme scheme.
That's actually the original format of the song, found just below:
