Description
Seven knights rode out a glorious dayFour knights returned in a not so glorious way
Three lost to the dragon and her roaring fire
Three knights who perished in her burning ire
In shining armour they fought the beast
But alas, for the dragon it was only a feast
With lance and sword and bow they tried
But alas, three of ‘em only got fried
For fighting a dragon one needs more than steel
No, only cunning can deal with that mutated eel
One must outsmart the scaly worm by far
If one has wishes of being the king of the bar

King of the bar... What, knights go kill dragons and then get drunk and brag about it to serving wenches? Cooool.
Anyways, I like how this poem is able to tell a story but still keep rhyme and rhythm consistant. That's wicked hard to do, I commend your efforts. Applause, applause.
My favorite part would have to be this couplet right here:
For fighting a dragon one needs more than steel
No, only cunning can deal with that mutated eel
It makes me giggle. Mutated eel...
