Goblins Green Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Goblins green
Every where are seen
In Hastings Gardens this night
Roaming the star-light
Giggling to the moon’s light
A whole feast of them!
Merriment and silent song
Whispered ear to ear
Fruits they brought along
In baskets special
And then hunger getting them
To eat together social throng
They dance not in this night
But roam, wander the light
That the moon and stars throw
That seep through the high boughs
Of the old oaks, tall firs,
Ah! mischievous goblins green
All round the Monument
They gathered clambering
Top middle at the base
No body stops their elfin glee
