//------------------------------// // 1: My Poetic Journey Begins // Story: Poetry Is Magic // by Peace Poet //------------------------------// 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.
