In the Mushroom Kingdom, a tale unfolds,

Of heroes and villains, both young and old.

Let me spin you a verse, a poetic display,

Of the beloved characters from Mario's array.

First, there's Mario, the plumber in red,

With his trusty mustache and cap on his head.

Jumping through pipes, collecting coins with glee,

Saving Princess Peach, for all the world to see.

Next comes Luigi, his taller sibling in green,

Always there to aid, in the bravest scene.

With his high jumps and spin in the air,

Luigi supports Mario, a dynamic pair.

Princess Peach, the damsel in distress,

Elegant and regal, in her lovely dress.

She's captured by Bowser, oh, what a plight,

Yet her spirit shines on, full of grace and might.

Bowser, the King Koopa, a formidable foe,

Breathing fire and scheming wherever he goes.

With his army of minions, he plots and he schemes,

To take over the kingdom, his villainous dreams.

Yoshi, the loyal companion, oh so cute,

With a long, sticky tongue and a parachute.

Riding on his back, Mario conquers the land,

Together they make a courageous stand.

Donkey Kong, the ape with a thunderous roar,

A friend turned foe, then friend once more.

With barrels and bongos, his strength knows no bounds,

A legend in gaming, his presence resounds.

Toad, the mushroom-headed, helpful and kind,

Guiding our heroes with a pure heart and mind.

In the darkest of dungeons or the toughest of quests,

Toad lends a hand, passing each test.

Wario, the anti-hero, a greedy soul,

Chasing after treasure, his ultimate goal.

With his wicked grin and cunning schemes,

Wario adds spice to Mario's dreams.

Princess Daisy, a princess of Sarasaland,

Her vibrant spirit, like a blooming strand.

She shines as brightly as the sun above,

With her athleticism and everlasting love.

Rosalina, the celestial being of grace,

Guardian of galaxies, in a cosmic space.

With the Lumas by her side, she lights the way,

A symbol of hope in the night and day.

These are just a few, but there are many more,

Captivating characters we all adore.

In the world of Mario, they dance and play,

Forever etching their mark in gaming's grand array.

So let us celebrate, with joy and cheer,

The characters that fill our hearts, near and dear.

In poems and stories, they'll forever reside,

A testament to the magic of Mario's ride.
