Prologue

Dear Princess of the Sun and seas,

Who kindly guided me throughout

My youth; who told me all about
The world and all its mysteries:

Today I learn'd beloved Dash,

A spectral wonder of the skies,

A mare who's easy on the eyes
A loyal friend; at times, though rash--

She always cared, she never fled,

She comforted in times of doubt,

She always loved, she did not flout --
today I learn'd that she is dead.

I sit now in my study-place

With Spike and Owl' by my side;

I wish to curl up, sleep, and hide--
Instead, I write you, by your grace:

Dear Princess of the Sun and earth,

Whose reign does span all mortal planes:

Will you please guide me through my pain,
Be ever present by my hearth

By reading, sharing misery,

The endless drivel I will pen.

I do not know where to begin
Except by writing poetry.
