Jousting Surprise

I dreamt a great knight was jousting for me

His lance tossed the opponent from his steed

     In great joy I reveled

     But soon felt dissheveled

When mask was lifted, Nancy Pelosi!

Smile ~ "Laughter," I can feel You deeply here dear lady....But, I also strongly believe, that Everything has its reasons and, not all is what it sometimes seems...."God," whom calls the things that were not, as though they were....Smile, can You hear "Him" calling ~ "As Always, My Love to You Dear, Carolyn Devonshire," John!:) ~

Enjoyed this Limerick, Carolyn! Thank you for commenting "Roald Amundsen". A mistake for sure that some history books won't even mention him as he was a great explorer. If I would be younger and with enough means I would also go for adventure for sure!...Have a nice day. Love, Gert
