A Beautiful Knight

You furrow your brow with a kiss on your lips
As you step off the earth into the dreamy abyss
I wonder do you find peace, is your day done
or if only now, has your battle just begun
 
Do you put on your armor and pick up your sword
Fighting to defend love, honor and all its reward
Seeking to slay dragons, fire and lair
Belaying all harm of reach to your little girl's hair
 
Are you charging a steed cross a mystic land
Trumpets blaring, fierce army at your command
Does a fair maiden await your loving graces
as you travel through mist of those faraway places
 
With dawn begins a fire aglow, I watch for your return
Twinkling of morning roses, its your touch I so do yearn
A beautiful knight has conquered and won
My heart, my love and a new day's rising sun

Lovely rhyme Karen. If you adore Knight's you should write a Fantasy with Dragons. Thank you so much for your kind words. It was nice to read you >> James

HI there, Karen, thanks for the sweet soupmail. I see you like those romantic knights of old too!! I liked your meter in this poem. You show that you have an "ear" for lyrical poetry! My favorites were the second two stanzas. The last part was a beautiful ending for this poem. LUv, Andrea
