Solo Flight

Solo Flight

Solo Flight

I’m going solo, next time round,
*Cause no brave knight, have I found.*

Who’s good enough, to rest his head,
Upon my silken, feather, bed?

I’m going solo, with no reservation, 
Without maybes, buts, or procrastination.

I’ll seek some alternative recreation,
On which to channel, my frustration.

In which to put my soul and heart,
like psychology, law, or Egyptian art!

With me, mankind would one giant step forward~~~~leap,
Or maybe, I’ll just go back to sleep.

Tomorrow’s another day, to start over,
Relentlessly seeking my four-leaf clover!

I doubt, these so called psychology, law and Egyptian art can ever replace a knight....right? Try again for another knight.

Hi Mydavol..thanks for your comment. This was written for a great friend of mine who had just left her knight- don’t worry it was just her knee jerk reaction... she’s found several knights since then!
