King Arthur

King Arthur

Pendragon a boy of fifteen unknown
But of Merlin about the accord
Shrouding Arthur's rightful identity: King Uther's
Son. Upon King Uther's demise England
Needed a Sovereign...one prophesied in
Times of dragons...a great upholding
Savior. Albeit Nobles and Knights aspiring
Crown and Kingdom attempted conspicuous acquisitions
Failing in their efforts. So it was on 
Christmas Eve that Arthur came about
Needing a sword. Espying the one
Stuck in stone availed the iron...
Beginning eternal legends of King Arthur...

Very, very good. It was like a one page novel. You took me from begining to end in less than 15 lines. That's a rare talent. I have a medieval poem as well if you would like to read. It's titled, "Dream Sequence". Others tell me it's pretty good. Thanks for sharing. Rockman :-)
