Where is it

2781

We search the stars 

Dig deep underground 

 

But where is it?

 

It can't be found. 

 

No mention can be made of coral or quartz..

 

It's much to valuable 

 

It can't be bought. 

 

Where is it?

 

Can it be found...

 

Not in the land of the living..

 

Understanding is not with the proud. 

 

Gold or crystal can't equal it

 

Can't be exchanged for jewellery or fine gold 

 

Was it in the wealth of the ancients 

 

Back when its story was told

 

Where does it come from?

 

Where is its rest?

 

Behold, it says-

 

The fear of the Lord 

 

Is wisdom at its best.

      Apparently my grandfather (oops, grandad) from Scottish stock, buried his large stash of coins, never to be found. So they say.

      I love where my brain took me on this! I've searched for nothing but a reason to exist and now I've stopped asking silly questions and just got on with it....

      Ooo thanks for the inspiration I think I'll write something more to this lol

      Have a wonderful day

        To find it, you first must know what you are looking for.
