On Bended Knee

Kurt Philip Behm

Sword of  

the noble

With fury

unsheathed

Trumping

dishonor

And knaves

unreprieved   

 

Knighted in

armor

Endowed

from on high

Legend

heraldic

 With duty

— reprised

    • Cheeky Missy

      Ah, what images this conjures with capable words until one can almost hear the horses and trumpets, bits jangling and yet the awe of silence for knighting a soldier. Lovely and evocative.
