Whenever I'm a shining Knight,
I buckle on my armour tight;
And then I look about for things,
Like Rushings-Out, and Rescuings,
And Savings from the Dragon's Lair,
And fighting all the Dragons there.
And sometimes when our fights begin,
I think I'll let the Dragons win....
And then I think perhaps I won't,
Because they're Dragons, and I don't.
I am busy working to bring A. A. Milne's "Knight-in-Armour" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about A. A. Milne's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Knight-in-Armour" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
