Poem - A vision of Sherwoode- by Gill

Last night I saw, as though in dream
Olde Sherwoode Forest, all misty green..
And 'neath a tree stood Robin Hoode-
Hero of that fabled woode!

He smiled at me, and seemed to say-
'You know, I never went away..
Here I dwell, and here I'll stay-
To guard the Forest come what may...'

Then, as I gazed, there shone -so bright
A dazzling azure and emerald Light!
I turned away..I could not look,
As earth trembled and forest shook!

When all was still, I turned to see
With wondrous eyes- a towering tree!
And poised beside this stately Elm
A radiant Stag surveyed his Realm...
