From a time in history
where maidens love their Knights
comes a story of true love
that will last till the end of time
This brave knight who vowed to die for his Queen
found the heart of this young maiden and his life it did change
He would do anything for me and I as well for him
many children I did give him, a happy life till the end
War came to there country, the enemy was strong
many people died but my Knight he continued on
Twas our final hour when they came for us
Fought beside my Knight till the enemy defeated us
All is not lost tho, my friend, for you’ll see
My Knight in Shining Armor keeps coming back for me
Many life times have past and we still linger on
living for love together till our time is done
~Lady Raven~

Beautiful fairytale - and I love the picture! I've been desperatly looking for my knight in shining armour - and you depicted him beautifully with this poem.

Thank you for your comment. I find the poem to be wonderful myself. Wasn't forced and most of my readers want a picture and like a picture with the story.
Again thank you for your comment.
Hugs and bites, Lady Raven
if you would rather not read love I have many others. -
As a photographer the romantic novel jacket photograph is distracting, to say the least. I believe it takes away from what you are trying to say and I have a hard time taking you seriously after viewing such a poor quality illustration. Aside from the picture, the whole poem seems contrived and forced on your part. The subject of love is a difficult topic to write about because of the abundance of written word on the topic already. If you work on a rewrite, lose the picture to start.

Hello my dear...
This is a stupendous write, a nearly perfect fairytale--I say that not because of your writing, but because it doesn't have the signature happily-ever-after at the end. If this is a reflection of reality, I am sorry that you have lost the one you loved. But hey...in a future life, you two may cross paths again (or at least that's what I'm hoping for!) because if one has truly found their soulmate, they have to search no further. This gave me fantastic dreams of medieval times... like those historical romances. I love the piece... fascinating and beautiful!
Wishing you all the best of luck in the contest...
Many blessings,
Raven Aurora

well done
Very well done. I love the theme of re-occuring lifetimes. Wrote a long story about it for my dear wife on her birthday.
A pleasure.

True love, fighting side by side. In this day and age, just as the days of old it seems we still have to keep ever vigilant eye for wars ugly head. Enjoyed the story.
