He Is Certainly Built

Oh, my, he is certainly built! The women said of the knight. He was hidden in armor that was truly marvelous and right. If he had half the muscles his armor had, he was a catch. He is my hero a lady-in-waiting said, I think he’ll be my match! He must pump the iron, and he can call me any day. Said another excited maid, who was staring at him all the way. The knight had no idea he was being referred to as meat. He kept his shield on and next to his mentor, took a seat. He surely is not built like that! A couple of maids said with a titter. If he had half those muscles, he would make the queen quiver. I think he’s quite the hunk, the princess said to her maid. It is up to you to take a peek at this rare young sweet blade. The maid crept into his bed chamber and was shocked to see. He was built nothing like his armor; he was straight as a tree. There were no muscles, but the princess had been mean. He is built exactly like his armor, she lied to princess and queen.

Hi Caren, I always feel sorry for those who are not what they seem to be and they are mocked for it. So glad the maid lied. Your Knight was puny but he might have been the bravest. One can't judge a book by the cover. Loved the write. Have a wonderful Saturday. Hugs always ..... Mike. XX

He might have been Captain America before Captain America bulked up

Hmmm...so many times people are not what they seem to be because of their facade. When you peel it away, you find the true person. Sometimes you are elated; other times you are disappointed.

Sometimes we share different people of ourselves with different people also.
