Description
In a distant land called Avalon you can hear of a great kings glory
A haunted voice from the past tells the legend of Authur's story
From far away places you can hear the echoes of his wail
Drifting across the oceans, touching hearts with the fearless tale~
Mighty in his battle, gentle in his way with the opressed
Fierce in defending his kingdom with the magical sword he possessed,
Marriage was arranged with the fair Gunievere to be his queen
Protesting words from Kings council, Merlin did nothing to intervene~
A round table full of knights with Sir Lancelot by his side,
Unaware of the atrocity Lancelot had commited with his bride
Betryaing od the secrets fell upon the kings ear's
They were banished from the kingdom, a punishment most severe~
The unsavory antics of the duo brought about Authurs demise
Drawn into battle with Modred, a traitor in his uncle's eyes
Defeating Modred he is wounded, and then taken to Avalon
In a chapel he lives out his last hours,Sir Bevedre looking on~
Somewhere in the forest there is a chivalrous knight weeping in shame,
Fleeting were his pleasures, legendary is his fame
Mourning over his kings grave stood the knight Sir Lancelot
Wandering through the Isle of Avalon, in search of Camelot~

Fantastic prose - really conjures up the Arthurian legend in a stunning way - might make for a good series of Poser images for each stanza S Hope your mom is doing better now than she had been then - I'm close to my mom too and I know how that is all too well HUGS (glad to meet you as well S)
