Opposing views for M 'lady Emma.

sonnet in tetrameter

 

Opposing views.

 

Alone outlined against the skies.

An ancient druid proudly stands

Or so it seems to human eyes.

Upright erect with outstretched hands.

 As if appealing for Gods aid

 Against the Roman conquerors

Who have decided to invade

 and stamp the old ways out by force.

But only when the sun is high

At other times it’s just a tree.

A trick of light deceives the eye.

 Although   the locals disagree.

They disregard the experts view.

For they still hold the legend true.
