Of Dawn and Drawbridge

The flags are out
And fluttering - pennants
And a favour on my
Knight's arm.  The joust
Is a good one and
The best man
Will win
A great prize. I am
Seated and
Regal in my princeiy
State.  Drawbridge
Down the very
Stones are cleaned for
Action.  Our
Horses are restive and
Bite their bits
Kit jingling, saddles
Polished and flags
Fluttering brave in the morning
Sun.
