Andre Miguel Rodriquez de la Rosa
fallen in Spring Crown Tourney, A.S. XXXVI
(a villanelle)
Floppy ears and flapping wings
Buoyant on Crown Tourney day
Dancing while the steel rings
Ready for what challenge brings
Charging rampant to the frey
Floppy ears and flapping wings
James of Nayland battle flings
Rabbit spirit must give way
Dancing while the steel rings
Up he hops and challenge sings
Calling Ragnar out to play
Floppy ears and flapping wings
Cracking blow his helmet dings
Dizzy rabbit hits the clay
Dancing while the steel rings
Kathrine to his honor clings
As she mourns her brave Andre
Floppy ears and flapping wings
Dancing while the steel rings
