One slick plait falls down to the waist
She takes two trusty guns in haste
Slide into holsters, quick and clean
This woman is not all she seems
She runs, great treasures to pursue
Sometimes they're old, sometimes they're new
Across huge cracks and up walls she bounds
Accompanied by groaning sounds
Mercenaries and beasts are mere child's play
Not even a dinosaur stands in her way
Pistols are normally her weapon of choice
But she also works wonders with her sultry voice
She attracts both male and female alike
Whether soaring in copters or straddling a bike
Her gymnastic stunts never fail to amaze
Amongst thousands she has caused many a craze
Her followers cosplay, her look to portray
Some remained glued to game screens all day
From forums to fan dubs, artwork to fiction
We see that ol' gal's not one for the kitchen
She's given a franchise of eight games thus far
Two movies, with Jolie as the superstar
Blond, Gibbins, Elliot, all followed by Hawes
Offered the voices that we fans adore
Lara Croft in the woman that this poem lauds
From ruins to rooftop, this girl is no fraud
I'm sure you'll agree, she's quite the crusader
Yes, she is truly the amazing tomb raider!
