Pick a Title ' Etched on stone'

Contest by Edward Ibeh

     Geologist George 
     chose inscription to be etched 
     on stone of his tomb
     'Here lies Earth scientist on
     quest of under ground.'

     Sincere researcher
     wished to continue his work 
     even after death,
     opting opportunity 
     to  complete research undone.

     His earnest desire 
    was to pursue his quest
    in after life phase
    on care free excavation 
    peacefully under soil.
