A wonderful limerick Paul and Robin Hood has always been a fav. with me. Very clever that the god Eros conspired with Robin Hood to capture Maid Marianne's heart! Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

Thank you, Jenny. Most children get acquainted with Robin Hood at an early age in primary school. He still captures our imagination even when we grow up. Warm regards & Hugs // paul

Hi Paul, I wanted to write one on Robin Hood but I couldn't come up with anything. You did great and with others below that second line is really funny. Excellent job! Best wishes for the contest:-) Alexis
