Fountain of Youth.
People has been looking for the fountain,
Of youth since the beginning of time.
With all the clues and guessing answers.
Just puddles of waters and a waste of many lives.
It was written in a riddle That no one cared to find.
Then the old riddle was framed for many years unfound.
The riddle said it was in a cave two miles down.
Once they found the spot the cave was covered with rock.
But in the riddle the cave only opens at 3:00
We waited till three then the cave open remarkably
It was pitch dark black we lit lanterns to see where we were at.
Finely they can see water and see light the mushrooms and flowers
Were all great delights.
The old man wizard ask how old she was.
42 se said. Take off your cloths and walked through the falls.
To he surprised her answered and love has jus been called.
She called down to her husband To walk through the falls.
He refused to Walk through he rather be old after all.
She did this all for him now she realize.
He blew his life for another woman.
