Helping out a Damsel in distress in times of trouble and tribulation…

My Knight In Amour…

You always come to my rescue,
You always are there to support.
You are my modern day Knight in amour,
whenever I’m overwrought.
Your armour gleams, and your lance is long,
your steed awaits patiently,
You hold me, calm me, totally disarm me,
how lucky can one maiden be?
You take my worries, and all my concerns,
soothe them till they are all gone.
You make me laugh, with your wooden Staff,
chain mail chinks, a metallic song.
Well, maybe I see you through glasses,
that are shaded just a tad, a rose pink,
But you will always be my Knight in amour,
when you unblock my clogged kitchen sink!

    Nice ending! Modern-day damsels in distress have different needs than medieval maidens, like plumbing.

    Lol, Xtine, glad that you liked it…..I wasn’t too sure of the ending till it actually formed! Isn’t that the truth…us damsels can deal with so much ourselves nowadays, but when it comes to blocked sinks, a Knight, however rusty his amour, is a useful person to know…hahahahah…

    Haha this poem made me chuckle Songbird.The ending was so totally unexpected. I quite often get the plunger out an pump it up and down in the plug hole to clear any blockages there in the bathroom sink. It usually gets blocked up with soap and hair, but not mine though (hair that is) as luckily it all seems to be in place there on my head….lol :-)

    Hahaha… this was so funny, it made me smile loads! I loved the little rude bits of hard poles and long lances… are was that just my filthy mind?

    Lol, Lillyrose..now how can I possibly answer that? Hahhaha…
    I leave it up to my reader’s interpretation…(Phew, just about got out of that one! ) lol. Great to see you visiting my page, and thank you for making me laugh and brightening up my evening no end….(Now just between us girls…….It is possible that it could be read into……).
