       I found an old notebook that had some poems I had written and
forgotten.  Here is one of them that I wrote at Gulf War and performed just
before the Ladies of the Rose Tournament.

       WARRIORS OF THE ROSE

Good Gentles all it pleases me.
The privilege that is ours to see.
The honor, skill and chivalry,
Of all the world put on display,
Before us on this field this day.

The noble Ladies of the Rose.
Bestowed their favor upon those,
Who's honor, skill and bearing shows
The high ideals we all hold dear.
Our best and brightest gathered here.

Good warriors of the Rose take heed,
With honor let this list proceed.
Neglect no great and noble deed.
Come show us now what you can do.
The Known World stands here watching you.
