Overcast
1/1/2017
Originally many thought the globe was flat
Had to take note of that
Too late for going back
But getting one step closer at
Objectives near the upper and lower branch
Wind blowing fast
The sky was overcast
Above many roads and paths
As well as any homes or shacks
Near or far away from stones and grass
Flying animals like crows and bats
And other animals on the ground like toads and cats
Objects broke in half
And others were prone to crack
Across the seas a lot of boats have crashed
Some of the objects and treasures sunk or continued to float like ash (rafts)
Hard to know the locations now and be so exact
All three leafed except for one with four in the clover patch
Above and below areas with hives having honeycombs of wax
Some wanted not only the throne but cash
And the whole entire motherlode to grasp
Funny how it all was on the day when there was growth at last
