The Passionate Ash to his Misty
This is my first fic.  I hope you like it.  I haven’t written prose in a long time and I guess 
I’ll get back to it soon.  I’ve been writing songs mostly, but this is the first Pokémon 
related song I’ve written.  If Ash were a poet, this would be what he would write for his 
beloved Misty.  The title is an allusion to the poem “The Passionate Shepherd to his 
Nymph” by Christopher Marlowe.  The title is the only thing that has to do with 
Marlowe’s poem.  The rest is my own creation. Enjoy!

When I first saw you
I felt a Thunderbolt strike.
Then you stayed with me
Because I owed you a bike.
Now, holding you close,
I know what love is like.

Pallet to Indigo Plateau,
We’ve traveled together,
Through wind, and rain, and snow,
And all kinds of nasty weather.
I don’t see a way
That this could get any better.

A kiss is just a kiss
Unless it comes from you.
And sweet, sweet Misty,
When do we say, “I do?”
(Pi! Pikachu!)
And he agrees too.

A Clefairy can’t match your grace.
A Jynx can’t match your kiss.
Just to be near you
Means eternal bliss.
Nothing can separate us
With such a love as this.

A kiss is just a kiss
Unless it comes from you.
And sweet, sweet Misty,
When do we say, “I do?”
(Pi! Pikachu!)
And he agrees too.

Your beautiful red hair
Makes you glow in the night.
And feeling your kiss
Makes me fly high as a kite.
When I say, “I’ll love you forever,”
I know I’m right!

A kiss is just a kiss
Unless it comes from you.
And sweet, sweet Misty,
When do we say, “I do?”
(Pi! Pikachu!)
And he agrees too.

You are a goddess
And I hope everyone knows.
I’d be happy to shout it
Every single way the wind blows.
With each day I’m with you
My love for you grows.

A kiss is just a kiss
Unless it comes from you.
And sweet, sweet Misty,
When do we say, “I do?”
(Pi! Pikachu!)
And he agrees too.
