Bardic Arts

Spoonhead

Janos wields a mighty sword
he is a fearsome knight
he wears a coat of deepest green
his pants are yellow bright

and if you've been to Pennsic
you'd wonder at his nerve
had he been busy drinking
or in his bread some herb?

the story's told throughout the land
both sung and writ by quill
when he departed from his tent
of clothing ... he wore nil

the moon was in the sky that night
and also on the ground
and soon Janos was gifted with
a special 'spoony' crown
