The entered rat:
The submission: A Sonnet for Stumpy

Oh Stumpy, sweet Stumpy, my rat divine!
What brings you so to the depths of sorrow?
If you feel unloved or left far behind
Just look upon the words at your window

You’ll find me with a smile to greet your glance
And eyes that tear up at the sight of you
I’ll hold you and guide you in a sweet dance
For this bond we share is a righteous truth

We’ll stroll through the fields and then we’ll just run
At breakneck speeds as our laughter carries
Through the sky and onto the setting sun
In the hopes that your sorrow it buries

Oh Stumpy, sweet Stumpy, my pony friend!
How divine is our love which has no end.

The entered rat: Micky
The submission:

Dear Stumpy, don’t feel blue,
You're loved so much, if only you knew!
With tiny hooves and heart so bright,
You shine like stars in darkest night.

A friend like you is rat rare to find,
So sweet, so brave, so strong, so kind.
No need to fear, you're not alone—
You have a heart that feels like home.

So hold your head up, don’t be shy,
You're special, loved, and that’s no lie!
On this day, please hear me say,
You’re perfect just the Stumpy way!

So i ask you in a friendly way,
Do you want to be my Valentine—
even if just for a day?

The entered rat: Centurion
The submission:

Oh my love, so sweet and true,
Did you let your perspective skew?
From earthy tones to eyes brightly green,
Your value is certainly not unseen.

As sweet as a bees treasured honey,
and humor only fools wouldn't find funny.
I simply strive to be nearer to thee,
or solely that you'd hear my plea.

Stand tall like the tress above,
Let your wings spread like a dove.
Be confident like the eagles that soar,
Knowing they need nothing more.

If you hear anything, I hope you discover this:
Your presence be nothing short of bliss.
Though perhaps I'm but an aspirer,
From Centurion, a not so secret admirer

The entered rat: have yet to make her on the official lines i hope its ok,, to enter regardless

The submission:



precious stumpy,
please dont feel so sad and dejected
brighter horizons are right ahead of you, i insist

especially in a time of love just know youre never alone
even though life may feel a bit monotone
it does get better and for that i can atone

theres always a shining ray of light at the tunnels end
and theres always someone there for you, dear friend

a hoof to hold
a mane to lean on
and a hairless tail to cry on

[Nalena]

The entered rat: Mimi
The submission:

Though you're small, dear Stumpy, no one can replace.
The big spot in my heart where your hooves race
In this world of lil rats , you're perfect to me.

My sweet mare you’ve been down, but your spirit so bright,
You light up my days, you make everything right.
I love you, dear Stumpy, so gentle and true,
No pony compares, no one but you.

Stumpy you’re the mare of my dreams I hope you can see, so bring back that beautiful smile please, just for me.
