His goodly works deserve a laurel wreath A man who, on VN, earns high regard; One (of a Noble Trio) known as “Keith” (Sir Porthos) wields both pen and Balizarde. One deems me “Liege” – a term somewhat amiss For I no greater am than such as he; Sir Richard, quill in hand (as Aramis) Delights and charms with kind verbosity. There’s nothing ‘dour’ about my friend Athos (Though William’s pesky knee bears battle scars) No Verse a Caber he can’t deftly toss; With every comment worth a host of stars. When trouble looms, with them I gladly call “Fear not – ‘tis all for one and one for all.” ********************** [RDK September 2012.)
