Camelot, rich imagination of mystery and power, <br />King Arthur, Merlin, the magic sword of Excalibur. <br />Fair maiden Guinevere, Arthur's queen, <br />A beloved wife, but faithful not, <br />Knights of the round table, and heroic Sir Lancelot. <br />Wonderful places, in these stories of old, <br />To bring dreams of romance with knights gallant and bold. <br />A sad tale of forbidden love affair to hurt Kings pride, <br />Story set in rugged English countryside. <br />Passionate love affair between Guinevere and Sir Lancelot, <br />Bringing trouble to enchanted castle at Camelot. <br />This love triangle, happy and sad, thrived in the golden mist, <br />But Mordred, evil knight, put end to this. <br />Guinevere to burn at stake, to save kings face, <br />Sir lancelot rescues her, <br />But now they have to leave enchanted place. <br />After bloodshed, tears, sad fall for all, <br />Enchanted land torn apart that day, <br />Sad music on a mandolin does play, <br />For broken holy law, <br />The price they had to pay.<br /><br />Julia Ann Holliday<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/camelot/
