Chest of Gold
She comes along with a glint in her eye
I knew just what she was coming to spy
I had a chest, one that was full of coins
It had what she desired, surely she joins
Powers beyond belief were inside this
Anything you wanted you wouldn’t miss
She opened the chest, looking deep inside
Moving the lid over, opened it wide
The golden coins all shone on her with glee
Not one fell away, each one she did see
With awe she played with the contents within
All of the coins were gone, she had taken
She proudly moved with a quick step along
These coins to her, is where they did belong
