Knight in shining amour
with chinkle-chankle reigns
rock hard he attended
all castle pleasure games
Like a steed most noble
our knight advanced from rear
master all he purveyed
with all the darling dears
The dear in the courtyard
who’d felt slings and arrows
knew that mighty cupid
our knight struck not with bow
Bowing over partner
within warm, wet recess
momentary pleasures
night lovingly addressed
Bowing to a corner
in most comely square dance
Great Ladies desired
bent, pinioned and entranced
Hawkishly he circled
before a tête-à-tête
martialed his resources
selecting his night’s mate
Dance as old as Adam
preceding even Eve
piston for cylinder
zoologically
Each night a new beauty
more lovely than before
coming to castle games
a sport our knight adored
Games advanced through springtime
deflowering damsels
knew nights never ending
with his rod would succor
Sustenance provided
Ambrosia and nectar
With fräuleins und herren
pleasure’s depths he explored
Springtime turned to summer
our knight still felt the heat
Court games repetition
advanced with martial beat
Marching through the summer
October came and went
somehow dazzling damsels
found him not so potent
Sheathes that he desired
now unlikely to yield
sword once strong and mighty
he now oft times did shield
Shield beneath monument
the sword belt at his waist
testament to excess
that few now longed to taste
Now is bitter winter
groan strong in discontent
glories of the summer
with hump all came and went
Dick is short for Richard
and as the days grow short
our knight spends nights dreaming
what’s now unyielding sport
