Poem Title:
Poem
Start I’m sure you’ve heard his name before From stories of knights in days of yore Born in village La Mancha in Spain Was enthralled of knights, he chose to feign After resurrection, to America he came In search of adventures and fame As legend goes, every knight must have a lady- love To bestow his “victories” to her as it behoove He chose Princess Melania as the apple of his eye And began his quest with her name as the battle-cry He persuaded a ‘Sancho’ to be his faithful squire With promise of an island to govern as his gift to aspire Obsessed by the chivalrous deeds of knights he read He decided to ride a horse which was almost dead In search of the helpless to defend and the wicked to punish He began his knighthood with a resolve to fight to the finish He soon discovered that times have changed There weren’t any country sides where Kings reigned Nor castles to conquer or giants to attack His weird armor and battle cries only drew flak Nevertheless, he charged at a parked garbage truck Struck it with his lance using all his pluck Construing it to be an enemy out to destroy him But, he fell to the ground with a broken limb Bruised and battered, Sancho helped him up Took him to a hospital for a thorough checkup The doctors patched him up and examined his head Found its content deficient, but permitted him to go ahead Resuming his journey he saw a kitten hidden in a bush “Let’s grope for the pussy,” he yelled at his horse with a push The horse galloped fast but stumbled as it fell The kitten got panicky and fled like hell It’s enough for the day, felt the Don and returned to his lady love He took a ‘selfie’ with her sitting on the statue of a dove He knelt before her and said, “Here are my trophies for you” Presented the broken lance and smashed helmet, before bidding her adieu. End
