We thought we’d look for Robin Hood
so we jumped through the fence and into the wood
but of those men in Lincoln Green
neither hide nor hair was seen
but the walk certainly did us good.

As they started poking around
they found a bone covered in slime
that had been there for a long time
so decided they should dig down
and see what else was in the ground
the story goes or so I’m told
it seems it started to grow cold
this they found to be quite eerie
by now they were getting weary
and all were lost as was the gold

Let your imagination leap
and picture me as I mumble
Sir I am ever so humble
seen as the archetypal creep
I am of course Uriah Heep
Of all the books that you have read
this man will stick within your head
but if we look inside his mind
we gain insight into mankind
no better trait needs to be said.

Concerned I may be thought a freak
the blacksmith set about the task
of constructing an iron mask
thus covering my deformed cheek
so that people would not just shriek
as my cruel mother had done
when she first saw her new born son
when the tearful midwife held me
up so my cold parents could see
their own tainted figure of fun.

I looked at my neighbour
and she looked at me
then she smiled, bowed her head
and asked if I could see
that we and all the the other posts
were painted quite brightly.
I asked her for the reason
and with a smile of glee,
she said tonight when the park is closed
we will dance round the old dead tree
Hare, knew the result
was a foregone conclusion
no point in rushing,
the triumph of the tortoise
became the stuff of legend.
In Western skies
Hyperion’s son
in fiery
chariot,
expelling dark eyed Luna’s,
cold nocturnal grip

Best tread warily,
beneath this fragrant carpet,
sleeping fairies lie.
Sly fox, sleek hare and nervous deer,
from without the forest all will appear,
as one they pay homage, this October morn,
to, “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn.”
