There are dragon's to slay ( A villanelle ) Take heart mount up point your lance at the prey The fields flow in red and the dead are dead. Don't be passé there are dragons to slay. Seek out their way and their lair and their lay. Charge them and roust them until they have fled. Take heart mount up point your lance at the prey. Fight them and beat them with weapons that weigh. Challenge them on land, on sea, or abed. Don't be passé, there are dragons to slay. Take courage, control and think not blasé. All of the splay does not run with the red. Take heart mount up point your lance at the prey. There are dragons and dragons lunge touche. The worst of their dread those stay in your head. Don't be passé, there are dragons to slay. Be brave no knave show your valor this day. Your shield halos red strike hell for the dead. Take heart mount up point your lance at the prey Don't be passé, there are dragons to slay. |

Very well done. Although I am thinking this may become a dangerous place for me.LOL Again it is a wonderful piece. Keep it up/ ------------------ "Life's greatest mystery isn't the meaning of life. To love and be loved is the meaning of life. Now how to attain those is the greatest mystery of all." |

As usual, Seymour, a wonderful piece of poetry from you. Just remember that old saying~~ "Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!" heheheh  ------------------ The only man worth your tears will never make you cry... |
