THE DRAGON AND THE MAIDEN

 

Alas my fair maiden

You hide behind your veil.

Please listen closely

To this Jousters tale.

 

For this Knight he jousts

Sans armor he no more.

As a fool he was

So many times before.

 

Twice upon his steed

He mounted for the joust.

Never had his armor on

So was sure to lose the bout.

 

Twice knocked off his steed,

His pride though really hurt.

Still he held his shoulders back

Though face be still with dirt.

 

The King he waves the flag.

The final joust be near.

Yea Knight now dons his armor

But not for the hand of Gwenivier.

 

For yea Knight a costly lesson

Learned from years of tears and pain.

To capture hand yarn maiden

A dragon must be slain.

 

There is a fire breathing dragon

That lies deep within your soul.

Knight never getting close enough

To do battle with its evil hold.

 

Now this Knight he jousts

For maidens hand no more.

For the love of thy maiden,

Now no longer holds its lore.

 

Other hands do beckon now.

My lesson so well learned.

If I try again to slay your dragon

I know I will surely burn.
