Hoodwinked In the Forest

Robin Hood of proud Nottingham fame, Treated affluent folk as fair game. He’d grab hold of their cash And then off he would dash, But to give to the poor was his aim. Bowman Robin, with cupid-like art Sent a quiver through Marian’s heart. Through the woods they would ride, Merry men at their side; How she wished, just for once they’d depart! 30.01.19 Limerick 3 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Joseph May
