Knights In White Satin~R.I.P
Published in

As I looked into the darkness
seeing nothing there
my thinking not very clear
there was a shadow
all dressed in white
gleaming through the endless night
Silver sword in one hand
horse’s rein in the other
Knight in white satin
As the horse stepped forward
Dressage in its military style
Its rider
from head to toe
in Knight’s amour
brilliant in its white satin
Too bright to look upon
Too magnificent to be ignored
Tonight one thousand mothers
will be sending this same line
“Dear Lord”
“And mothers cry
‘cause their sons will die
knowing not which side of the plot
to lie”
And only her
Knight in white satin
to dry the solitary tear
from her eye
Here to remind her
Gone a while
but
It’s never going to be
goodbye
