Pony Life in a Dreamhouse

Pony Life in a Dreamhouse

Dreamy creature,
With ocean eyes and batting lashes feature,
Still looking like Barbie,
The pony's glittering saddle guarantees.

Horsehair dipped in gold paint,
A dazzling smile can't escape.
The moment Pony meets Ken,
His eyes softened.
He looked at her like the stars were jealous, 
As if she had been his wish when he wrote to Santa Claus.
Her. Half-Pony. Half-Barbie
Always have been, always will be.

Ken stroked her mane warm and Pony clung,
Letting out a soft purr from its lips,
As if testing the reality of it on its tongue.
Well, Pony is whipped.

Pony will be the sun that can shower Ken with rays.
Pony will be his moon, with a glow that never wanes.
Because Barbie can be what she wanna be,
And her Shape-Shifting Pony will gladly.

Though born half-Pony, 
in a Dreamhouse that's unpredictable,
Barbie had Ken's unwavering loyalty. 
Pony is one of a kind after all!

Hello Shir Ley. Thank you for entering the contest. Love the way you thought outside of the box with this one. The use of toys is a clever move. And a very interesting interpretation of the challenge. Although its not quite meeting the requirement of Shape-Shifting, I still feel your poem is worth a placement because of the split form. I like your idea though and the fact that you did something a little different. :-D

Half and half. Half pony/Half Barbie. Not a complete shift from Barbie to Pony.... it was wonderful for a first contest entry and it's an honour you chose my contest for your first try. You will find the contests on the site inspire some poetry you never knew you had in you. But dont let it dishearten you if find yourself not placing in some contests. Its the poetry that matters. :-D. Ive entered many and been N/A. But the contests have broadened my exploration of my own imagination and creating some of the poems. Warm wishes and happy writing. :-D
