Poetry
White Knight
By Katanga
24 May 2008
You know the Moody Blues classic?

-----------------------------------------
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send

-----------------------------------------

I know it sounds corny now, but as a teenager I honestly had visions of these silk-clad gentlemen on their chargers - I spent idyllic hours pondering what end it was that they would never reach, and why on earth they would be writing letters in the heat of medieval battle.

So here's a variation . . .

Cheers!

John


Knight in White Satin

Silent knight, wholly knight
All is harm, all is fright
Round young teenager, mother and child
Wholly infantile bender, and wild
Weeping will never cease
Weeping will never cease

I hated that song. Always on at school discos, for the smoochy bit.

A very interesting variation John, and very original to wrap your message around it. I liked this, it seemed to hit me in several different ways. Keith
Thanks Keith!

Thank you for finding and kindly reviewing this small effort, which has passed people by largely unnoticed (deservedly, I think!). 
 
I see you yourself have just posted a couple of stonkingly good new pieces . . . 
 
I shall review them as soon as the pressure of work permits! Probably this evening . . . 
 
Cheers!
