The words this week are meddle, ambush, hideous
A knight and his lady from old Camelot
Were walking one day in a fine beauty spot
When an ambush came on them, and down from above
Swooped a dragon, abducting the knight’s lady love
Our hero was plunged into abject despair
That a hideous monster should take one so fair
He vowed he’d give all, for his lady to save
And embarked on a quest to the creature’s home cave
Such adventures he had and such people he met!
What beautiful sights that he’d never forget!
Brave deeds he accomplished, great battles he fought
Til at last to his quarry our young knight was brought
And when he arrived there, exhausted and sore
Oh, what a peculiar sight lay in store
In the lady's sweet presence, the beast had reformed
Its temper was peaceful, its heart had been warmed
“My lady, I’ve struggled through numerous fights
Why didn’t you send word that you were alright?”
“My lord, you seemed glad there was praise to be won
I hated to meddle and ruin your fun”
