The Paladin is wounded and weary of the continuous war he wanders into the woods and finds a delightful release from his pain. read on to the end and I hope you find it funny.


The Briar Rose by M.A.Meddings an entry to Robs Fantasy challenge

And I wandered lost
For many a day
Beyond the realms of Gor
Across the plains of Acheron
A victim from a war

That had taken my youth
Rendered me old
No longer able to see
Except for memories held dear
Of the wondrous beauty of thee

Thus I sank into despair
But sought a refuge in
Labrynthian
Silent woods
Where I might strength regain

All winter long
I sheltered there
Beneath the briar rose
And coverd up by falling snow
My life all but to close

Until at length
A maiden fair
Found me where I lay
And kissed me and other things
Good god it made my day

She rubbed me with her
gentle hands
Where I wouldnt tell my mother
And said kind knight this is nice
I'm glad your not my brother

Thus the frozen parts
Which quickly thawed
Stood there strong and rigid
My sword and lance oh what a dance
And now I'm not so frigid

So That old tosser
Charlamagne
Can stuff it I suppose
I am staying here with the maiden fair
Beneath the Briar Rose

This is delightful. Yes, it is funny! So "cheeky" in a fantastic sort of way, yet the romance is still there. :) xx kathy

You are so very naughty...imagine a fantasy challenge without the romantichero adding his passion, humor and wit...it had to be!
