Ode to Naruto, Leaf Village Shinobi

Even though I'm older now, one of my favorite shows has been Naruto: Shippuden. It's the kind of art that I feel more people would love if they gave it a chance. It's not the same dubbed, though.

Yellow-haired shinobi

Hokage of our hearts

Teach us all of bravery

With your deadly ninja arts



How sharper than a kunai

And mightiest by far

Uzumaki Naruto

Konoha's brightest star



When you're starving for some ramen

And your chakra needs a fill

Have a bowl with Naruto-chan

Jiraiya's got the bill!



And when old Madara starts cracking wise

And Susano'o fills the darkened skies

Remember where your true strength lies!

With good friends like Naruto!


Dattebayo!

Akatsuki and missing-nin, please don't think you're going to beat A: Naruto or B: my fly poetic skills, fools, ya fools.
