I am pretty sure no man, alive can live up to a Knight in Shiny Armor. I do exist in dreams. God is the only one who can live up those expectations and does so every day. Thank you for sharing this wonderful poem and presentation with us.

I really love that you have standards. Way to put a line in the sand with this whole Knight in Shining Armor thing. Lol. I think all of us, men included, wish there was someone who would all odds to save us, be with us and love us. Fabulous. Gretchen

    When I was a young girl, I looked for a k.i.s.a. but after four failed marriages to the wrong kind of men, I gave up. I always was attracted to lovers. LoL

    Thank you very much, Gretchen

Do knights in shining armor still exist? I think chivalry is a thing of the past. Well, not for everyone, I suppose. Brilliantly crafted, Gypsy.
God bless,
Steve

    haha ... I remember stories of knights in shining armor when I was a little girl. Anyway... it's a joke.

    Thank you very much, Steve.

Yes, where are those knights in shining armour these days? I really encounter one. Although I did take a bus ride in Spain and as I was taking my seat and the bus was throwing me about all over the place, this young strong handsome man offered his hand to steady me, and I took it! I enjoyed your magical post, love Dolly x x x

reminds me of holding out for a hero by bonnie tyler!

so the ryokan is basically free verse about ordinary life?

you did a great job on this searching for your hero...

thank you for sharing
shelley :)

    Yes, ryokan is basically a free verse with enlightened satory but i did mine with humor. 99% of japanese poetry is free verse with syllables count. Gogyohka is free verse too but five lines.

    Thank you very much, Shelley

I enjoyed the humor that you put into this whimsical poem -- "I hope he didn't get deep-fried by a dragon or fall into a mountain crevasse."
I think it's best to avoid the concept of knights with or without armor. Lol.

    Yes, knights whith shining armor don't exist but it's a nice thought. I never had a relationship like that.

    Thank you very much, big sister.

    Love
