Sweet Francine
Sweet Francine
Sweet Francine if you were Queen
I’d be your Knight in Armor
I’d fight for you, to self be true
You lovely little charmer.
If deadly peril crossed our path
My sword would clear the way
Fight to the death and laugh
Though death might find a way
In any fight this poor knight
Will carry yes your banner
Prove true blue, in any fight
Approve you, hope my manner.
But dying there upon the lance
I can look up and smile
The charming lady passes by
But drops her head awhile …
Don Johnson 20-may-11
And lying here with broken spear,
the lance lodged in my chest,
my blood does flow,
darkness comes n goes
my love gives her last caress...
Yes Linda Marie,,,
my words get tangled up with fiction...
of foolish knights ...
chain mail the fights...
but the lance fixes his affliction....
