Notes About The Poem

King Arthur - a Collaboration With Darren White

He is the king of words and poets alike
Assay as you may, this man you won’t smite
His armour sparkles in night or day
Defending those too meek to say

His table is round, there's room for all
There are chairs with wheels so no one will fall
He hands out bronze goblets with sparkling wine
This king of lush gardens has spine

Renowned through the kingdom, for deeds he’s done
There is no battle, he has not won
His knights are loyal to a fault
So you better beware who you assault

Lancelot and Guinevere are by his side
Uniting followers far and wide
So sit and drink with us in harmony
And enjoy food presented artfully

I knew even before reading the poem that it would be a gem with two poets such as you both are! And true to that faith you both meet the mark! A fav...

Legend has it that if ever England suffers invading forces Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table will manifest and ride once more unto battle...for the glory and salvation of all Brits...truly I would really like to think so! Enjoyed the poem; evokes stirring images! My best regards. :) john

This is very cool - enjoyed it, as I love the whole legend of Camelot and everything connected to it, (and some of the deeper, more obscure tales attached - have written a few myself). You might check out "Freedom's Rare Sanctuary" that I wrote about the tree that Merlin assigned to guard Excalibur. Love this guys - great collab!

"Assay as you may . . ." I loved this choice of words. I am a chemist of sorts and that word assay carries the meaning of deep and probing analysis. Nice job guys! -- Dean
