This week's topic: Night
A Knight At Night
I met a knight one night as I was walking through the park,
Perched atop a shining, stately steed.
The knight he said, "The path ahead is swallowed by the dark,
So stick with me and follow where I lead."
The night said "Fear me, tremble boy, you should be home in bed."
The knight said "Stay behind my flaming lance,"
The night said "Turn back now, you fool, my darkness soon shall spread,"
The knight just said "Take courage and a chance."
We pressed on through the dark, and though I didn't know the way,
The knight protected me with light and song.
Fight the night, or else it might your resolution sway;
To give up and go home is more than wrong.
I know I've said it over and over, but I love this Poetry Contest. The greatest thing about Steemit is the never-ending supply of inspiration it provides. Terry Craft - You truly are the knight protecting us from darkness. Thank you.
