Array ( [sid] => 37753 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Roses At Her Feet [time] => 2004-03-07 22:55:47 [hometext] => Just something I came up with. I don't know why. Please leave comments. [bodytext] => She stood there
in the middle
of the forest,
the sun's rays
glistened through the trees.
She was waiting
for her knight
in shining armour,
to come along and
sweep her off her feet.
She and her knight
have been in love,
as long as she
could remember.
Their love for eachother
was as pure as
the raindrops,
that fall from the sky.
Whenever she saw her knight,
he would always have
a dozen, long stem
rich red roses.
He would get down
off his black stallion
and lay them at her feet.
She would look into his eyes
and smile at him,
he would gaze into hers
and smile back,
they would then
begin to kiss.
They knew deep down inside
how true their love was,
he would then get back
up onto his stallion
and ride off into the sunset.
Her heart longed for him
to come riding up on
his black stallion
and kiss her once more,
he came galloping
across the forest,
he looked troubled.
He got down off the stallion
and lay the
dozen, long stem
rich red roses
at her feet.
He collapsed once
the roses were placed,
he had a sword
sticking out of his back.
She knelt down by his side,
as his life slowly drained
away from him,
"Forget-me-not
fair maiden,
I shall love thee forever."
"I shall never forget thee
my knight in shining armour,
I shall love thee always."
She stood up and
cried tears of sadness
for her knight,
while the roses
lay at her feet.

Roses At Her Feet

She stood there
in the middle
of the forest,
the sun's rays
glistened through the trees.
She was waiting
for her knight
in shining armour,
to come along and
sweep her off her feet.
She and her knight
have been in love,
as long as she
could remember.
Their love for eachother
was as pure as
the raindrops,
that fall from the sky.
Whenever she saw her knight,
he would always have
a dozen, long stem
rich red roses.
He would get down
off his black stallion
and lay them at her feet.
She would look into his eyes
and smile at him,
he would gaze into hers
and smile back,
they would then
begin to kiss.
They knew deep down inside
how true their love was,
he would then get back
up onto his stallion
and ride off into the sunset.
Her heart longed for him
to come riding up on
his black stallion
and kiss her once more,
he came galloping
across the forest,
he looked troubled.
He got down off the stallion
and lay the
dozen, long stem
rich red roses
at her feet.
He collapsed once
the roses were placed,
he had a sword
sticking out of his back.
She knelt down by his side,
as his life slowly drained
away from him,
"Forget-me-not
fair maiden,
I shall love thee forever."
"I shall never forget thee
my knight in shining armour,
I shall love thee always."
She stood up and
cried tears of sadness
for her knight,
while the roses
lay at her feet.
