Notes About The Poem

Here's a sonnet on the lighter side...

Sir Galahad Returns

~ SIR GALAHAD's RETURN ~


Sir Galahad's returned to life
Hurrah! Huzzah! and Yippee-Yay!
He's bought himself a hunting knife...
Strange appetites of steeds these days
Demanding noodles, but not hay

Announcing in the village square
"I've come to catch a yeti live
So pray for me a simple pray'r
That I, and not the yeti, thrive"

Sir Galahad, upon his steed
Doffed his visor, then off he rode
The village folk did pay him heed
They prayed a heartfelt plea and crowed:

"Please God, this knight not catch his yeti
  ~ We haven't any more spaghetti"
