Poem
Uther, the High king of England fell in love with the Lady Igraine Knowing she was married to Gorlois he decided to fight the walrus For he was the Duke of Tintagel that Uther wanted to mangle ‘Thus he defeated his enemy’ and took her, his wife to be The High King delighted to tell of Merlin’s magical spell How he’d become Gorlious in disguise and fooled the Lady Igraine to socialize Tintagel castle was full of joy celebrating the birth of a baby boy ‘Twas Arthur they had named him’ a bonnie baby small and slim They lived in a dangerous time where Saxons attacked without sign So Uther gave his son for safety to his immortal wizard thats greatly In time Merlin fostered him away to Sir Ectors where he would stay Raised in the Cornwall countryside where he grew strong and very wise He grew up with his foster brother Kay not knowing his real parents any way He didn’t know he was heir to the throne until later when it became known King Uther died and no one knew about His son that should over rule So arguments broke out everywhere who should be King, who would dare But Merlin had a cunning plan to make Arthur take a stand For he was the true king and heir a kingdom he would rule and fair A mysterious stone magically appeared in St.Paul’s cathedral, in the garden rear Extending out, was a huge sword a message inscribed to my Lord Whoever pulls this sword from the stone will be the rightful High King of England’s throne © Copyright 22nd December 2010 K.C.Leake
