Aberration

>>>>>>Two young boys decided to go trout fishing one day,
               They were going into the burnt woods, it was a long way.
               When the got to the pond and started to fish,
               A fog started forming and it had a cool mist.

               Tried another location and hoped the fog would lift,
               But it only got worst, the fog was so thick.
               It time to leave and head back home,
               They dident bring the compass or even a phone.

               When they left to go fishing,it was a nice day,
               We wont need the compass we can find our way.
               But back in the bush, the weather can change in a flash,
               One minute its a clear day, the next its as black as ash.
          
               Out of no where a light appeared,
               Look John, there must be someone in here.
               As they walked to the light, it moved away,
              They said can you help us, we lost our way.
  
              No answer was given, so they followed the light,
              Its a good thing they did, because it saved their life.
              The light guided them back out to a station,
              When the story was told it was a sensation.

              Jack O Lantern , the light was named,
              It saved two boys lives , or so it was claimed.
              This story is true as most people say,
              Its told by old people to this very day.

What a beautiful narrative verse, Alan! Imagine how a Jack O'Lantern provided enough light to usher these boys home safely. Thank you for sharing this incredible journey!
