Knighthood Tale

Knighthood tale While we look back at the past Great memories keep rushing back As today is the joy of many tomorrow Many yesterdays have no hiding places Though i live to love you forever Love walks away from the reminiscence As a good name is coated in gold Streams of joy and happiness We are going to tell you fables! From the king tables for nobles Great Men are the Men of the past Like a titan fall among the minnows For a living dog is better than a dead lion As pages are born for his knighthood A great knight is a crowned king Many fables and tales to tell His world is full of wonder as sober as pie of honors Something to remember than flowers As a friend closes at the same heart.

This is an interesting look at the value of past fame and glory and present-day common joy in love. I like these lines especially, 'As today is the joy of many tomorrows/ Many yesterdays have no hiding places.' - These are very thought provoking about what matters and to treasure livingness joy and love, rather than fame (perhaps only fabled) or things only living in my mind from the past. A good read. I like it. J :)
