Pokémon

Pokémon

My grandson has one hundred and fifty cards,

Each describes, and describes, and describes,

Unbelievable amounts of information,

I spent hours playing these Pokémon games when my children were young,

And, now they have evolved into at least five generations,

Oh, dear Charles Darwin,

Beam me back to the Galapagos

If you think your finches are something,

Think again,

Electric, Water, and Fire,

I still have my favorite,

It is a good talking point,

So,

If your grandson asks you,

“Who is your favorite Pokémon, Grandpa?”

Just say, “Pikachu”,

After that he will leave you in the dust!
