The Last Knight

My first new poem is quite some time.

There are no more battles to fight.
There are no more wars to win.
There are no more dragons to slay.

He is the unchallenged champion.
He is the unquestioned master.
He is the unbowed hero.

Every foe he has defeated.
Every quest he has achieved.
Every maiden he has rescued.

He is the unchallenged champion.
He is the unquestioned master.
He is the unbowed hero.

His sword hangs limply at his side.
His armor rusts in the hall.
His horse roams content in the pasture.

He is the unchallenged champion.
He is the unquestioned master.
He is the unbowed hero.

The people have other concerns.
Peace brings its own problems.
The knight has had his day.

Yes, he was the unchallenged champion.
Yes, he was the unquestioned master.
Yes, he was the unbowed hero.
