Isle Delfino,
Clouds lift, slowly as cries ring.
Shine get! Eat babies!

Mario's hat is Red,
Those coins are Blue.
I'm sick of collecting them,
How about you?

Mario eats cake
Bowser eats really bad pie
And princess made them

The Mario Marathon is underway.
I don't know how much more they can take.
Don't give up guys.
Eat some more french fries...
You've almost met your goal...yay.
by John Reuter
Mario is cool
Collecting a lot of stars
Beating bowser too
by Ryan R
A poem.
It's almost 4 in the morning your time.
You've been playing for almost 91 hours.
Let's be honest, you're so tired, I bet you approve this.
by Leda
Couch Dog falls into a rage
When members leave her herd,
And none can get past Susan Page
Or break her iron word.
Twitters tweeting left and right
And chatters running wild,
Mario and Bowser fight
While Shirt Guy eats a child.
Polls go up for viewer votes
As Blanket Girl reads replies,
Diggs get dugg to help promote
And raffles reward with a prize.
Mario Marathon goes on and on
To benefit Child's Play.
Raising money until the crack of dawn.
Nothing will stand in our way!
by Douglas Reed
There's nothing quite like the hilarity
of watching these guys' dexterity:
seeing their fails
reach epic scales,
and raise some cash for charity
p.s. Not intended derogatorily, you guys are awesome. Game On!

Haiku for Mario I
Red coins are O.K.
Purple coins are O.K. too
Blue ones are from hell
Haiku for Mario II
Mario is hard
Sunshine is the hardest one
Five syllables here
Haiku for Mario III
Saving Princess Peach
She is not careful enough
Buy her a taser
Haiku for Mario IV
Luigi is gone
He must be in his mansion
What a selfish man
Haiku for Mario V
Mushrooms make him big
Turtles with wings make him small
Japanese are weird
Haiku for Mario VI
Yoshi is useless
Why can't he swim in water?
He drank too much juice
Haiku for Mario VII
Toad is a mushroom
You think he would be a frog
...or even a toad
Haiku for Mario VIII
He is a plumber
Why is he killing turtles?
A mid-life crisis

Into graffiti
Mario fights boss
Shine get is a must
by Kirk64
This is a poem that is written in Luigi's point of view. I'm a bit rusty on my poetry, so the last line doesn't rhyme.
What about Luigi?
I never gets the attention I deserve,
it just really gets on my nerves.
I can't help that I'm so cowardly.
Mario would be too if he dealed with ghosts hourly.
I really thought I would get the fans with such a green hat,
but they seem to be more interested in my bro that's red and fat.
But I plan to show everyone how great I can be in my new adventure for Wii.
I call it Luigi's World: The Adventure of me!
I'll be sure to not include Mario, Wario, or Bowser,
just the unappreciated group, like waluigi, toad, or mouser!
So next time you start up Mario Sunshine, think about my feelings.
by CityVelo
Remember the days when the games were all new?
It was amazing to see what Mario could do.
Get a feather to fly,
A Yoshi to ride --
Get hit by a blooper,
Sink off the screen and then die.
We'd yell out in defeat,
Exclaim with surprise!
Feel remorse or embarrassment
When Mario would meet his demise...
For decades to come, we'll sit down and still play
'Cause you just can't beat the gratification of Mario to this day.

(Best read with a little Italian flair)
I once knew a plumber named Mario.
He'd travel so near and so far-io.
He'd save-a the princess,
Beat down Bowser's senses,
Yet still had to get 50 more star-ios.
by warbacon
A hundred percent with peach! oh my!
But Brian's gonna give it a try!
You've got all these lives,
I'm breaking out in hives!
I'm sick of seeing you die!

Saving the princess a lot
And beating bowser

While trying and retrying a race on a squid,
we learned that we can spray water and skid.
Finally it's done,
we had a lot of fun,
but look at all the gameovers he did!
by Hammy J
Mario, what are you doing?
Stop walking around in circles, are you crazy?
Just because your Mario doesn't mean you have to act insane.
Next, thing you know you'll end up wearing a cape and spin until you're in a daze.
Silly Mario, stop jumping into pipes. Those pipes are septic pipes and the prizes down there aren't that nice.
Hey, Mario, I lost my change. I left a few dollar coins on a table, did you see anyone take it?
It's what I need to feed my family.
Hey, Mario, are you lost? You just got here, you look different. What do you mean you died?
MARIO ZOMBIE! Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Red plumber I see.
Evil Bowser kidnaps Peach.
Plumber for the win.

Mario Marathon, let's get busy
1 hour Sunshine levels make me dizzy
But it's all for the cause,
There's no time to pause.
Child's play up in the hizzy.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Super Mario Sunshine is really hard.

OOPS! I let go of the key.
Do level over
by Jo Outdoors
Mario is a plumber,
part time fireball gunner,
If you see him in mushroom kingdom 5-3,
you'll know Mario is a koopa killing G.
His jumps are so rad,
Princess Peach will be glad, when Bowser is dead,
and the Kingdom is sought of his dread. Respek.

Three gamers staying ever seated,

Epic failing hard.
Things seem so bleak and hopeless...
It's for the children!
by Leda
Did you ever stop and think, maybe,
In order to save kids with rabies,
Some nerds could play games,
And gain massive acclaim,
While charitably eating a baby?

Hi Team Mario,
Good morning, and congratulations on an amazing start! Despite the current technical hiccups, we can see that you're off to a really sensational weekend.
I just heard that someone was requesting Penny Arcade and Child's Play's opinion on the marathon. What can we say, it's AMAZING! Community events like Mario Marathon are the backbone of Child's Play, we truly receive a majority of our support from individual donors. For every gamer who donates what he or she can, we can provide something to make hospitalization a bit more bearable for a sick children.
From all of us at Penny Arcade and Child's Play, thanks to every who donates during Mario Marathon, and a special thanks to the Mario Marathon team. We'll be watching, and cheering you on!

Here we are, fighting spotted plants;
when we win, there are "SHINE GET!" chants,
The players are solid,
and by no means squalid,
but where did you get those PANTS!?!

Short spoof of Toys R Us commercial theme.
I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Mario kid. There's a million games with Mario that I can play with! I don't wanna grow up, because if I did, I wouldn't be a Mario kid!

AN ODE TO ORANGE SHIRT GUY
A man known for his orange shirt
With whom hundreds of women would like to flirt.
The face of a moose adorns the head
Of the man so many women would love to wed.
His fingers produce magical tunes
While women (and some men) on the internets swoon.
His jokes can be great, his jokes can be corny,
and regardless he'll make women... happy.
Mario Marathon and Child's Play would cry
If not for the essence of Orange Shirt Guy.
by Kyle Mack-uh-rah-vitz
Here's a poem:
Mario Sunshine is tough
It's annoyingly rough
But you guys are nuts
As you sit on your butts
Too bad none of you will get cuts
But it was for the CHILDREN!
by warbacon
To my favorite hosts, this I write:
Fight the pirahna with all of your might!
The boss takes his licks,
shines we only have six!
I think it will take all the night!

How much money will they raise?
How long will it take?
How many days?
How many times will they die?
Will they laugh?
Or Will they cry?
How many hours will they play?
Not enough the fans will say!
Those questions unanswered
Until the very end
We all thank you,
Mario Marathon our dear friend

Cough dog is so loud
For he makes us all deaf
Though his power keeps viewers from leaving
No one can risk the closure.

By a good gamer, sixty-four was played,
And when he won, brouhaha was made.
But now it's someone else's turn,
A guy who has a lot to learn,
And we all wish the first guy stayed.
