A Knight of Great Valor...
by Lumpkinz11

A Knight of Great Valor, so Brave and True
Set out on a quest to battle three foes
The first was a knight, in armor so bright
He fought with all he had, and stayed to fight

The second foe was a wizard, so wise all had said
He cast spells of old, and he always led
Our brave knight was no match, and soon he fell
But did not give up, he'd still win with a yell

The third foe, a poor farmer, did not seem too tough
But with a hidden strength, he sure proved enough
Our knight fought hard, and with all his valor
But in the end, the farmer won with power

Our brave knight, he did not despair
He knew he had tried, had fulfilled his dare
He bowed his head in respect and honor
And accepted his fate, and thanked the farmer

He knew that sometimes, courage won't win
But that doesn't mean a knight can't give it a spin
So though the farmer had won the day
The knight still had courage, and that was enough to stay

As Time Moves On...
by Lumpkinz11

As time moves on, my years begin to show,
The wrinkles on my face, the silvery grey,
Yet I can take it in my stride, you know,
These signs of age, they come and pass away.

The creaks in my joints and aches in my bones,
The memories of days that have gone by,
My eyes still twinkle, I know I'm not alone,
For I can see the beauty in the sky.

The wisdom I've gained throughout life's many tests,
I carry with me as I breathe each day,
The beauty of age, I do not regret,
It's a gift I'm grateful for in every way.

For when I reach the end, I'll go with grace,
My dignity and spirit, still in place.

A Matchstick Loves a Candle
by Lumpkinz11

A matchstick, so small and weak,
Craved nothing more than to seek
The warmth and light of a candle bright,
To make his life feel just right.

The flame, a beauty so grand,
Moved the matchstick to take a stand.
He wanted to bask in her fire and glow,
But his feelings he could not show.

The candle's flame flickered and swayed,
Drawing the matchstick in her blaze.
He thought of her day and night,
Which only made his feelings ignite.

He wanted to tell her of his love,
But he was too shy, so he stayed above.
He watched her from afar in the dark,
Admiring her beauty, he had a spark.

The matchstick's flame burned bright and true,
But it was for the candle he longed to pursue.
He wanted so much to be with her,
But alas, it was but a blur.

The candle looked ever so fair,
But her flame was just too far to share.
The matchstick's heart felt such despair,
For he knew his soul would soon be bare.

He had to accept his fate,
Of death, and a love too late.
He found solace in the night,
Where he could feel the candle's light.

A Rose and a Woman
by Lumpkinz11

A withering rose, so frail and whisper-thin,
A sight of beauty, though its life soon ends.
It mirrors a woman who nears her passed kin,
Her beauty too, soon to life's curtains end.

For both are life's symbols of frailness,
The rose, a beauty of nature's plan.
The woman, a beauty of nature's progress,
Gentleness of life in each woman and flower span.

Each beauty in its own time must fade,
The rose departs with autumn's last grace.
The woman, her beauty wanes with shade,
The sun hides behind a cloud's embrace.

But both in beauty made their mark,
The rose, and the woman, together aging.
Their beauty will end, but not life's spark,
For each one will find in death's peace its blessing.

Sonnet [2]
by Lumpkinz11

Death brings change, it's true, yet life remains,
A living force that even death can't end.
Though life may seem to wane, its flame still gains
The strength to spark an ever-growing trend.

Though darkness brings a chill, and shadows creep,
The light of life still burns within the night.
Though death may take away, it also keeps
A bond that binds us in a perfect plight.

Death's presence brings a strange and somber grace,
A reminder of our fragile mortality.
It brings us peace, a balm to soothe the face
Of fear and worry, when our hearts can't rally.

Life's gift, so precious, death can not depart,
Its whispers last, an echo in our heart.

One a Man So Loved a Wife
by Lumpkinz11

Once a man so loved a wife his heart did break
When death had taken her, his love did quake
He dug up her corpse and held it close to him
In grief he wept, his soul did slowly dim

His love was so strong, it could not be quelled
He held her close, his heart he could not felled
In madness, he twirled and danced with her in arm
His sorrow revealed, for death had taken his charm

In his mind, he saw her beauty ever more
His love for her could not be ignored
Though his pain was so real, he carried on still
His love for her, he'd never let it chill

The man so loved his wife, his heart did break
That he'd go mad, no one could mistake
And so he danced with her, his love so true
Until death released him, his face cold and blue

In a Garden's Embrace...
by Lumpkinz11

In a garden's embrace, a seed was sown,
Nurtured by nature, its beauty soon shown.
Petals unfurled, a delicate dance,
Growing with grace, a symbol of chance.
But fate intervened, a tragic end near,
Crushed underfoot, its demise so severe.
Yet, in its demise, a lesson we find,
Life's fragility, a reminder unkind.

A Skeleton's Lament

"A beating heart, blood and flesh
I need more than just a hollow chest
A soul within, a life to start
A living body that's not apart

A body that's whole, not just a shell
The chance to be alive and well
A chance to touch and feel the breeze
A chance to move and never freeze

A chance to see and shake a hand
A chance to take a walking stand
A chance to hug and feel the warmth
A chance to be more than just a form

A chance to laugh and feel the joy
A chance to live and not be coy
A chance to feel the sun and rain
A chance to feel alive again"
