KNIGHTED.

With swelling heart

she wields the sword,

"Arise, Sir Knight",she says.

She's watched him grow

from boy to man

through sad and happy days.



There were times

she near despaired

when he seemed e'er to be

On mischief bent,

his eyes alight

with mirth and evil glee.



But here he stands,

a full-fledged knight,

proud teardrops fill her eyes.

Tall and handsome,

strong and brave.

So hard to realise



that all those years

of worried toil

have ended now in joy.

Her heart is full

as this knight stands;

he pride, her son, her boy.
