Quatrain For Robin Hood

When Robin Hood hides in our wood I shall not turn him out I'll let his merry gentlemen Hang all their bows about. So when a swaggering M.P. Comes riding by alone The arrows of the hidden host Will ring against the stones. The horse rears up,the man looks round To see what's caused the stir And what he sees amidst the trees Is green men everywhere Let him complain to Sheriffs all. The green men will be gone. When soldiers come to hunt them out They've vanished every one. The forests of England are the home Of rabbit,deer and game. The green men live their natural life And we should do the same. let us all take to the greenwood life And feel the strength of trees They do not change at every poll, Nor do just what they please. In Nature all is linked to one And one to all extends. If we could change our cut throat ways Maybe all could be friends. The hearts and souls of all of us, Form a great human wood. So let the love we feel be shared, And heard for the common good. If everyone is given their place Then Robin could go home His men would not be in my wood, And M.P.'s could safely roam. Let us all sing,"Robin for King," "We all want Robin Hood." "He took the money from the rich To be spent for the common good.
