The Cutie Mark Poems
– Ponies with Amorphis

[Click here for the accompanying song]

Follow the Trail of Rainbow Mane

I was born to ride the heavens
Feel the wind through my mane, within my wings
Blinding sun, deafening gale rushing in ears
Love for the sky, for the flight still guides my heart

Bright sun against the cloudless sky…
Excitement of the flight
Breathe air ten thousand hooves off ground…
Feel truly alive

Unafraid to learn the newest tricks
The ways above the clouds
Unafraid of risks within my deeds
I will just rise again…

Ruthless fouls
Bullying the weakest
"You hurt my friends,
I'll make you regret your words."

Demanding them to make amends
Standing by my friend's side
Gather in line to start the race
Challenge accepted

Skyline's clouds our goal in horizon
Through the practice course
For my friends' sake I'd take any risk
Protect them with my wings

Dashing the course with speed of sound
Fastest ride of my life
Above the clouds wonder was born:
A Sonic Rainboom…

Sphere of colors shines over the folk
Competes with the sun
Arc of light follows the winner's flight
A trail after her mane…

…Through sky she rides
Her greatest flight
Fastest alive
Through barrier strikes…

In the race I earned my greatest prize
Token of skill, speed and power
Across skies
I paint my mark, my rainbow trail…

Honestly speaking, Rainbow Dash was for a long time my least favorite of the Mane Six – an opinion that’s been changing recently with some very good fics here and there. However, it doesn't mean that I couldn’t give her the song she deserves – my third-favorite Amorphis song, “Sky is Mine”. Energetic, melodic, catchy as hell and epic as heck. Perfect song for the one who loves to fly.
