POETRY CORNER

 

From the first ever quest to the last, Knightmare always provided us with couplets of fun.

 

From Beds came David and his four,

The first to quest ‘neath Treguard’s floor.

The first task was to walk the word,

How long it took was quite absurd!

With open spelled and path discovered,

Olgarth’s clues were soon uncovered.

Two of three were earned with wit,

Then Lillith sat atop her pit.

The ruby earned Dave’s freedom flight,

But then someone turned out the light!

No lamp, no hope, and worse, no well.

Dave was doomed when darkness fell.

Eight years on how things had changed!

One final quest could be arranged.

Olly’s Leicester men were pressed,

To hurry blindly through their quest.

With Motley landed without harm,

Sidriss gave her creepy charm.

With dragon’s help and magic cast,

A stick will find the way that’s fast.

Past the whirring blades of death,

There was no time to pause for breath.

In Marblehead the bells rang out,

The end of Knightmare’s final bout.
