">  Your Knight ~FIrst Knight~ Let me be your Knight, That one who holds all that you are. Upon the breeze we will ride to that place, That place that only you and I know. In the meadows I walk with thoughts only of you. I ask, "Where has my mind gone?" You haunt me like shadows that follow the light. My thinking is not free, nor do I want it to be. Let me be all that I am to you, For we have not yet become all that we are. I come to you now in the peace that you give, Willingly I surrender to you and all that you are I will gladly rest in your beauty, Sit eager and await your return, For I was made for you, and my heart knows not another. Being in love with someone is more than just saying "I love you" |

Hey! This is my favourite painting in the entire universe!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cool!!!!! Isn't it just so beautiful!!!!!! (Though I have to tell you - the story attached to it is not a happy one. The woman is a fairy who bewitched him and left him in the morning after a night of love, forever sorrowed. He wandered from his knight's purpose and died of grief... - sad huh?) And wonderful poem FKnight. '...I want to be free - free to know people and their backgrounds - free to move to different parts of the world...' Sylvia Plath |

David...a beautiful poem to mirror the beauty of the picture portrayed above. I really enjoyed this stanza: "I will gladly rest in your beauty, Sit eager and await your return, For I was made for you, and my heart knows not another." Very nice lines...nice posting By the way...laughing...have I told you yet my theory on knights  |

Kneel before me gentle knight Right now on bended knee Let me look into your eyes As you say these words to me I need to read the honesty Displayed upon your face It's hard for me to see it When looking through this space I confuse you gentle knight As I'm confused my self It's not courage that I seek, Not looks, nor is it wealth I seek a heart that's loving, A love that's kind and true I seek to be the only one You give your heart up to There are many circumstances That need to be worked out For things to work between two souls There can't be any doubt It's not that I don't trust you But I've been hurt before It's very hard for me not to Build walls instead of doors It's patience that I ask of you Gentle knight, please understand Rise before me here this day And reach out for my hand |

I reach for you and long to touch your soft and gentle hand. Desires deep inside me while I've searched this desert land. Searching for a woman who would stand the test of time, Given to me by the Father, my true love I did find. I see you my sweet darling, with courage you face the wall. Take my hand and I will stand, Together we'll make it fall. Being in love with someone is more than just saying "I love you" |

My goodness, I think I am having a romantic episode--it must be contageous. Very beautiful poem and sentiment First Knight. Your poem was great too, hoot. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |
