A Knights Quest

With the fading of daylight, as dusk shrouds the Earth
This lone knight lay vigilant, as evening gives birth
To the wonders of twilight, and cool evening mist
He thinks on his morrow, the end of his quest

New lands lay before him, of little he knows
He has bravely gone forward, to better his foes
Accepting each challenge, in a quest he holds dear
Knowing each victory, is bringing him nearer

For the quest he has taken, from long ago start
To claim the fair maiden, with key to the heart
Which pounds, buried deep, beneath leather and steel
In his battle torn body, seasoned and skilled

He has little for riches, save the tools in his pack
His sword and his shield, the clothes on his back
Courage and honor, his lance, and his steed
A life filled with valor, and chivalres deed

He bears neath his tunic, kept close to his heart
A tatered lace favor, his love did impart
As a promise once given, to a valiant young knight
Who had stolen her heart, with his goodness and might

Now as new dawn awakens, he will enter her land
A noble, proud knight, to ask for her hand
If his love should await him, he'll bear her away
To love and protect, to the end of his days

That was a very good one!

Very nice...a true knight in shining armor
