Is he or isn't she.. .
Behold! the fiery Dragon's dead,
by Knight upon a royal steed,
blood staining shining armor's steel –
sharp trusted sword, a spear and shield
dead dragon's steamy breath of life
sucked out by strength of golden Knight
its soul-less body left adrift
not hell nor heaven's succor bound
to stain the earth return to dust
as all that live and die must do.
The Knight returns in full array
to yonder king and castle walls
where court awaits in regal dress
to hear about the knightly quest
to rid the kingdom of the beast
triumphantly dispensed to death
a tale of wondrous knightly deeds
performed with strength and wily wit
a night of fear put to the test
re-echoing this knightly name.
Disarmed dis-armored knight approached
recounting tale of bravery
so each proud knight of kingdom knows
of dragons slain by Lady Rose.

Sir Lady Rose
Behold! the fiery Dragon's dead,
by Knight upon a royal steed,
blood staining shining armor's steel –
sharp trusted sword, a spear and shield
dead dragon's steamy breath of life
sucked out by strength of golden Knight
its soul-less body left adrift
not hell nor heaven's succor bound
to stain the earth return to dust
as all that live and die must do.
The Knight returns in full array
to yonder king and castle walls
where court awaits in regal dress
to hear about the knightly quest
to rid the kingdom of the beast
triumphantly dispensed to death
a tale of wondrous knightly deeds
performed with strength and wily wit
a night of fear put to the test
re-echoing this knightly name.
Disarmed dis-armored knight approached
recounting tale of bravery
so each proud knight of kingdom knows
of dragons slain by Lady Rose.
