THE KENCOLL 1957 Page 21 POETRY . . . THE JESTER AND THE KNIGHT Said the Jester to the Knight, Sure and I ' m one fool tonight, And you ' re another, else I ' ll buy thee wine; For the wind blows strong ' and free While I bend upon my knee, Begging that you ' ll spare this life of mine! Then the Knight, there in that inn : And it would not be a sin, I could kill thee now for having cheated me! But methinks I ' ll let thee go — So you will not do it moe ; — Now raise thee up ! don ' t thank me from thy knee! Ah, but Lord, replied the clown, I must not needs bend down. To such a knight as I know thee to be! For I spied thee with another — (And I think it was thy brother) Fighting for a lady by yon tree. And when thou him hadst killed, (And my blood then clearly chilled) You threw him in the moat for none to see; But I followed, heard the maid As her life aside you laid. For fear she ' d tell the world of thy black deed! Methinks you ' ve seen too much. Said the Knight, with just a touch Of sympathy for him he ' d have to slay. But no sooner said the word, And he drew out his sword And killed the Jester on that evil day. And now. spoke up the Knight. 1 am in a sorry plight. For I ' ve killed two friends to cover death of one! And I know of but one cure For these darks deeds that is sure And I ' ll hang myself afore the day lie done! First Prize— Senior BOP, DINSMORE, HA THE STUDENT ' S PRAYER The teacher is my master, I shall not get away ; She maketh me to learn in the classroom, And she restoreth my knowledge, She leadeth me into the path of learning For my sake : Yea! when I walk out of school at four o ' clock I shall fear no teachers, For they aren ' t with me. My ruler and pencil shall not comfort me Surely teachers and principals won ' t follow me all the days of my life, And I will not dwell in Kennedy forever. CHARLES SCHWARTZ, 9B POODLE PARADOX That Poodles are intelligent, 1 think most folks agree. That ' s why I often times suspect That mine ' s outsmarted me. In obedience I ' m pleased to note, These Poodles really shine. They nearly always take a prize — But not that clown of mine. He ' d rather hear spectators howl, Than win a silver cup ; So when I hear the laughter start, 1 know the game is up. When I bid him the dumbbell fetch, lie takes it to the judge. And when I frown, he winks at me And simply will not budge. When I walk fast, he lags behind. At halts he shoots ahead ; And when I turn, he ' s apt to pause. And smirk at folks instead. When I say Jump he soars so high, The gallery shouts with glee. Which makes that ham at once forget The startled judge and me. He seldom makes a real high score, And yet he ' s pleased as punch, Because the crowd applauds him more Than any in the bunch. So off we go from show to show, And when the circuit ' s done, We may not have a prize to show, But we ' ve had lots of fun. KAREN MANN, 9B WITH AIRPLANES HIGH With airplanes high I long to be, The tops of trees so bright to see. Thrown on and up by engines ' thrust ( )r diving down to stir the dust; To soar like birds so gracefully. To hear the wind as it sweeps free ; To roll and loop so thrilhngly ; To fly, I long with greatest lust With airplanes high. These lustrous birds fly o ' er the sea As I at them gaze longingly — But bound am I to this earth ' s crust Until the day I rise as dust — To break these earthly bonds and flee With airplanes hi gh. Second Prize — Senior STEPHEN FOX, 12A
