//------------------------------// // The Pony on the Spot (Friendship is Magic, part 1) // Story: Friendship is Poetry // by Loganberry //------------------------------// No, Twilight was not pleased that day When she was told she could not stay But, rather, she must go away And try to make a friend. A flight to Ponyville was done As they prepared for Summer Sun; So, round the ponies, one by one To see who would attend. The first that she encountered there Was Pinkie Pie, whose sudden stare And gasp, as though she'd had a scare Drove Twilight round the bend. Next, Applejack, with country charm Bid her a welcome to her farm: Persuaded her there was no harm In eating to distend. And so the day wore on: Rainbow, Then Rarity (she stole the show) Last, gentle Fluttershy: who'd know? Young Spike she did befriend. Came evening: ponies filled their hall To see the one who ruled them all... Her absence therefore did appal. What ills did it portend? A jet-black pony now appeared And Twilight knew and Twilight feared: Into her soul the shade's words seared: This night would never end!
