Over a year ago I wrote a poem dedicated to Robert William Gruhn because he always impressed me so much with his incredible writing. Since then where ever I have been I continue to call him Sir Robert and quickly it catches on. He is a dear friend of mine. I hope you enjoy this poem that gave him the title of Knight. If you wish to see it in full display just go to my home page and go to the dedication pages.  OUR KNIGHT DEDICATED TO ROBERT WILLIAM GRUHN Our Knight...We see him within our soul Valour and right are his holy goal Ancient truth flows from his living heart Modern earth is where he does his part His steed rides swiftly with faithfulness Always bowing head in thankfulness Humble and truthful he lights our way Words of faith is what he has to say His armour shines gold with loves light With faith he polishes it day and night It protects a heart that is most pure Where his love, first given, he is sure His shield is the truth from Holy Book Giving strength to all who care to look Held high to protect the heart and mind This shield he offers to all mankind His sword is a pen with double edge The spreading of truth his sacred pledge With powerful strokes he gives the word Bringing light to all hearts who have heard Our Knight...Yes, we see him even now He will keep us safe, teaching us how His love is that of the purest known Through all his words and actions it's shown Our Knight...Rides through our Meadow, so fair With kindest words he shows how to care Writing from a heart filled with passion Sir Robert, Our Knight, man of action Karen Torbiak© Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

I'm glad to see this, I was just commenting on his poem that I hoped you would post the poem you referred to, and now I see you have. I think Sir Robert is going to be a welcome addition to our little family here. Sounds like he has a heart and compassion almost to match your own. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
