The Memory of Kings

by Larry5000

To 'the memory of kings' let's raise our glass
a toast to those years and to times long past.
Throughout the noble lands kingdoms stood tall
some rose to great victory, while others did fall.

While under king's orders, knights rode their steed
throughout the land, to impart the king's creed.
And on the field of battle, with every last breath
their swords swung hard, as they fought to the death.

Oh those glorious times that feed legend's lore
of magic and dragons and battles of war.
To castles long gone and those that yet stand
a painted picture we see in a famed crown land.

So let us all remember, their music and dance
of strong noble courage, to love and romance,
And in all of your thoughts and praises you sing
remember ever so fondly 'the memory of kings'.
