108 Ghost Flames
In mountain fog, it stands alert
A guide with flames of blue
Where lost souls wander, still unhurt
It shows them pathways new
Each ghostly wisp around its neck
(One hundred eight in count)
Helps spirits cross the final trek
Beyond life's mortal mount
Its eyes, like

From Plaything to Phantom
A doll, as plain and pale as frost,
Once deemed my spirit would be lost—
As swift and boundless as the breeze,
As what in them I'd come to seize!
For life, I held, was barren ground
Where some were born for glory crowned;
Those left must wither to the bone,
But these were whispers, mine alone.
They taught me how to breathe

Pokemon Rescue
My friends are locked up in their dungeon cells
toiling on tasks the teacher compels.
I'd rather use my time to run and play.
A Pokemon did my homework today.

Pokemon Days
Not a whole lot going on today -
guess I'll clean out my junk.
Here's a rubber band around some cards
on the bottom of my trunk.
I don't think Dan would want these Pokemon cards.
He's on the other coast
in a far-off land called New York City,
in the legal practice, engrossed.
He knew every kind of

Children's Poems IX
The Tapestry of Leaves
Michael R. Burch
Leaves unfold
as life is sold
or bartered, for a moment in the sun.
The interchange
of lives is strange:
what reason—life—when death leaves all undone?
O, earthly son
when rest is won
and wrested from this ground, then through my clay's
soft mortal soot
thrust forth your root
until your leaves embrace the sun's bright rays.
The Long Days Lengthening Into

If I Were a Pokemon and a Christmas Story and Another Christmas Tale
>We need a space filler Dragon, any ideas?
If I were a Pokemon
If I were a Pokemon.
I would not be very happy.
With all you silly blighters.
Trying to entrap me.
If I were a real pokemon.
Trap me you would not.
As I’d do the same to you.
In real life, trap me, you would not.
Nice one Dragon, very space

Maybe There's Something To This Pokemon Go Thing
Sometimes I just
want to sit
and write a poem.
Sometimes I just
want to stand
and recite a poem.
Sometimes I just
want to walk
around the house
picking up dust and lint
and maybe writing a poem.
Sometimes I just
think writing a poem
is the most wasteful pasttime ever
and I should just join the crowd
hunting Pokemons
right outside my front door.

Pokemon
For years I have been thinking
If humanity could go any lower than this
Then the answer came as a thunder:
Pokémon is the beginning of abyss!

Pokemon
People are walking around playing a game
Out and about I take them all around town
Knowing that they should know far better
Even ignoring the inherent danger I pose
Maybe I should have stayed in the nintendo
Oh come on you know that I'm just a game
Now the time to look up from your phone

Pokemon Team
Ignored by many you are Aipom,
Your talent I did see,
Your ability to replicate protects my team and poison you may inflict,
Pass the torch to my beautiful bug, let her perform her dance,
Her speed shall she also increase and guard our team as well,
The torch moves yet again to you my dragon,
Your power is matchless,
If by

The Nuzlocking of Pokemon Red
For those we lost
Nuzlocking Pokémon Red
This is a poem
To memorialize our dead
Rainbow
A level 4 Metapod
Caught with a single pokéball
Would grow to become
One of the best pokémon of all
Rainbow, the Butterfree
Evolved before our eyes
A valued teammate
We could never predict his demise
But in a simple trainer battle
Tackle was used by a Geodude
Rainbow had little HP
So we
