Short Sir Lancelot Poems

Sir Lancelot
didn't smoke pot
   He wielded a shield and a mask
   ~ A wineskin and a flask...

Sir Lancelot was the greatest
Sir Gawain was the soundest
Sir Galahad was the purest
Sir Cumference was the roundest...

Jousting only because of the kings pleas,
lanced once too often feeling apathy,
drinking from cup,
holes sprung much,
feeling like a piece of holey swiss cheese.

Lady Guinevere and Sir Lancelot
Trapped in a dungeon, his help she sought --
   Guinevere screamed, she yelled
   But Lancelot, help withheld -- 
Damsels rescued, how quaint ~ This knight sold pot...

All those dancers and cheerleaders
Dealers and losers
Faint hearts and beacons

Before me
Its Up to me, down to me

I may resume the matter
hurtling footsteps
Sir Lancelot  waiting
working out the price of time
Derange all boundaries again...

If I could travel back in time I would
Return to the great age of chivalry
To meet Sir Lancelot and Robin Hood
In Merry Old England is where I'd be
I would raise my sword for all that is good
And kiss the hand of my fair lady
To scale the castle wall with the moon above
Just to spend a night in the arms of my love...

I postulate ocelots
as proselytes for chocolate:
they’d get word out on the dot;
they’re easy to spot.

And I’d tell a parable 
or something comparable,
with a nugget of caramel
to be retold a lot.

Earth brown exterior:
clearly superior;
heavenly interior,
delicious and gold.

Here comes Sir Lancelot,
riding his ocelot.
Yeah, sure, it costs a lot,
but aren’t you sold?...

Stolen Brighter Day

Sir Lancelot, my one true love,
Was sent to me from God above.
In the kingdom of my dreams
Fantasies have many themes.
Real world longings seek thereof.

Oh, knight in armor come my way.
Let’s kiss and love the night away.
Two peas snuggled in a pod.
Holding to God’s iron rod.
NO!  Satan stole my brighter day.


Inspired by  Carolyn Devonshire’s “Jousting Surprise”...

...wait just a minute,
Now I know where
I was going to go,
And who I am;

I am Sir Lancelot,
The legendary knight of Camelot,
Dressed in a shiny suit of armor
bound for King Arthur's 
Knights of Round Table.
I do have tall tales to tell,
Tales of exploits, chivalry 
and adventures;
I...........
Someone from a passing car
yells out: "Hey, you look
good in your birthday suit!"
