Spring Has Sprung

[twilightpony]

I woke up late this morning to the smell of warm damp earth and fresh green growth. I went out on my balcony into bright sunshine, to blue skies and the battle cries of song birds. It really is spring. And since it's the first full day of spring, Pinkie fired her cannons and threw Ponyville a party. It was probably the bangs that woke me up.

I went downstairs and into town to join the fun. The early ponies were just finishing helping Pinkie hang up the banners. Of course there were balloons and confetti everywhere, and cake. Punch, cookies and lots of cake. Pinkie brought out pinatas and party games and Rarity rounded up the Ponytones for a sing-a-long concert.

In the afternoon the foals amused us with a six-legged race and a steeplechase event. After dark, my friends and I stood together to watch the final event of the Spring Has Sprung party -- fireworks, blooming like brilliant flowers overhead. Soon the ground will reply with a carpet of flowers of its own.

With Pinkie as our resident Party Pony, such an occasion is not to be missed!
