//------------------------------// // Jewel of Ponyville // Story: The Spike Poem Anthology // by Zephyr Spark //------------------------------// There is an orchard, but it’s not Sweet Apple Acres This orchard blooms with youth and loyalty. There is another number one assistant, but it’s not me This assistant strengthens the rock that Ponyville rests on. There is a star, but it’s not a celebrity This star fell from the sky to join us on the earth. There is someone, who understands what it feels to never know your parents. And this someone taught me that family is more than a mom and dad. That I can find my family in an orchard, a number one assistant, a star, That they will call me friend and brother.
