Listen to poem:

Joust

Jesters dance, yet this contest is serious
One maiden's favour flutters above the clamouring sound
Undertones of fear, but the crowd is delirious
Someone will thump and clatter towards a dusty ground
Today a new hero will be revered and crowned

Bill Baker September 28, 2023 at 4:23 PM A knightly tale, that will send one to hell. All for the handkerchief of a fair maiden. What men will do for a woman. Nice entry, Sam, good luck! Bill Sam Scott September 28, 2023 at 8:07 PM Thanks Bill, as ever :)
