Jump
It started with a man,
a man,
named Jumpman.
We jumped into his life,
and ours changed,
forever.
A pair of brothers,
damsels in distress,
the ones we have come to know,
Luigi, Peach, Daisy,
most importantly though,
Mr. Jumpman himself,
Mario.
Characters have come and gone,
like many full moons upon,
the nights dark sky,
for these characters float in darkness,
awaiting a lucky full moon,
to rise again.
We gather here upon these characters,
Yoshi,
a dinosaur,
Bowser,
a Koopa,
Donkey Kong,
an ape,
and many more,
an endless mindscape created for,
us.
We gather on Power Stars,
bikes, karts, and cars,
here we assemble.
For ordinary objects turned,
extraordinary,
a flower,
a mushroom,
a leaf.
We can truly run wild,
in this vast universe we gather upon,
we truly can.
Our universe, our thoughts,
our enthusiasm, our ideas,
bring us together.
Assembled,
reassembled,
remembered,
and forgotten we still gather,
here.
Though we may grow old,
and mature superficially,
we stay childish at heart,
waiting,
for a reason to return.
You see every day here is something,
different,
unique,
just like it's inhabitants.
We come from all 4 corners,
from Sherbet Land,
to Sarasaland,
to the Mushroom Kingdom,
to Rogueport.
Despite these physical,
differences,
we have,
one,
thing in common.
We sure know how,
oh yes we certainly know how,
to throw an awesome party.
Legacies wax and wane,
like the ever changing moon,
however we still belong,
to legacies present,
future,
and even those long,
long, gone.
We will imprint this moon,
so that it and the future may never,
forget,
the legacies before them,
and legacies after those,
forever on without an end.
