One Bye One

So long Pinkie Pie: a poem

The doctors said that there wasn’t much time.
But to the ponies of ponyville, there was no time at all.
She was a bouncing pink pony, with a rainbow for a partner in crime.
But the fun was brought to sad end, as the pink party pony’s health started to fall.

It started as a twitch, as it always does.
But as the days went by,
Pinkie Pie began to cry.
Separated from the things she loved.

The pranks continued, games were played.
But not a single cupcake was made that day.
The pink mare had grown sick, sicker than most.
The fact was that she was now, just a ghost.

The sugary treats that filled her with glee,
No longer could she eat them happily.
She gave up the fight, she was no longer baking.
Rainbow dash found the insulin not taken.

The pink party pony was no more,
The streamers were no longer laid out on the floor.
Party hats were replaced, ponies all dressed in black.
The party gifts and favours, guests started to pack.

A party for pinkie, may her soul finally rest.
But rainbow dash knew, it had all been in jest.
The party pony died, as laughter did too.
But sooner or later, so will you.

Pinkie pie came to terms with death that day.
Her happiness seemed so very far away.
The elements were now one short it seemed,
But sadly for them, it wont all be just a dream.

The sadness will take its toll on the five.
For soon every one of them will no longer be alive.
Times will changes, scores will be set.
We all die, is my best bet.

With all the energy the party pony could muster,
She left her five remaining friends in a fluster.
Off to join little spikey in the sky.
To the pink pony’s surprise, she could finally fly.

Sunrise, sunset, its all the same.
Moonrise, moonset,

its all a bucking game.

'is my best bet' doesn't seem to go with the flow as well as the other posts... but apart from that. A very sorrowful, very well written poem.

People make mistakes... but damn is it good!

I could tell you right here and now. I could never make a poem as good as this!

Also, you make up your own songs?

[The Drifting Bard]

Interesting, very interesting... I'm definitively going to be listen to these!

... Also, you good at creating poem/songs or you think you can tweak them a little? Cause something's been bothering me recently and I'll be glad if I got some help with it.

[The Drifting Bard]

Do you know about Green Lateran and the oath?

[The Drifting Bard]

258764 oh yeah... mind you it all depends, which version of the oath?

[The Drifting Bard]

258764
In brightest day,
in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!

yeah

That was the exact version I was thinking of!

Although, before I continue with my request... do you think we should take this to PM's? Kinda clogging the comment page up (if you agree, reply to this with a PM)
