Secret Treasure

Letters
Pictures
Poems
Money too

School papers
Jewelry
CD's
Buried in my yard for you

Yes, rather than burn items of yours
As you did mine
I have left a secret treasure
For someone to find

When we are dead and gone
My house has been demolished
The ground will turn over
A chest to be polished

Hundred of years away
When these things don't exist
Someone will see and read 
All the love you missed
