Knight Song
Poormans Copyright 2000
*stands on the mountain top, looks into the distance, picks up violin and begins to play*
I sing the song of the code of the past
The essence of the sunlight & the stars
Of the winds of spring & the colors of autumn
I sing the song of the two paths of Life
And the one that chose to walk between them
I tell the tale of a knight proud & noble
Of one with a lion’s courage & the heart to match
Yet cursed with the lion’s share of deepest kind of sadness
One that bites deeper than the sharp teeth of Old Man Winter
I tell the tale of the knight that walks alone
Only by destiny and not by choice
I say the story of the battles fought & victories won
The endless search for an unnamed essence to fill the void deep within
Of looking to the stars & prayers that seem in vain
The feelings of a vow said in years past
And the love buried in the caverns of the heart
I say the story of sword with the body & the love in the soul
I sing the song of the quest that seems endless
The tears never shed & the passion only released in the thick of war
Of the bittersweet dreams of waking to the cold reality
The love and joy always given but never received
I sing the song of the knight that walks alone
Blessed by the heavens & damned by the fates
Only by destiny and not by choice
I was asked to tell a story, song, or poem about myself once. This is what I wrote. Every word is true. I have no more to say than that.

Thanks for the note! You always seem to pick my spirits up. I wish I could write like you. Maybe I should take a creative writing class or something.
