Icon With iron lance and gallant course I ride my horse at gallop force My roar of stance is broad and clear This haggard world in armored fear. I swear to bring the bright to sight To clear the gray and dark of night To tear the shroud this false of show To free this freedom that we know And though I gray this weary vast I promised I would stay the last And do what must be done this deed For humanity in need So if you see me pass today In armor plate along the way I go to fight this final bout This towering giant of doubt But if I fail this flags icon Please bail it up and carry on. |

'... I swear to bring the bright to sight To clear the gray and dark of night To tear the shroud this false of show To free this freedom that we know ...' And I know you will do this with honor and glory. Wonderful - hugs, Marti 'A witty saying proves nothing.' |

Sy, this is one of my favorites of yours -- maybe it's that air of chivalry and "righteousness" or the subtle musical gallop in these verses... in any case: very well done! -MVS "AS ABOVE SO BELOW" |

Bein’ a knight’s a burden. I cain’t stop from hurtin’; These jousts and shivarees Have got the best of me. Your fine writing recalled words I'd written about a knight. Thanks for a great job. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Isn't that funny I always figured it was because their armor was too heavy or something because my knights always fell off their horses However, they never had any problem with their amour - Mr. Sy you are the apple of this Canadian girl's eye.[This message has been edited by Mysteria (12-07-2002 09:41 PM).] |

Sandpiper Knights are in the eyes of the beholder. Every once in a while one will pass bye. But the older you get the harder they are to see. LOL Thank you. |
