Seek and Ye Shall Find

Oracle, Arizona gold
Is just a tale prospectors told
If you walk that land
You will find quicksand
And underneath that its just cold

Another clever write, Rico. We don't always find what we're looking for...hmm, I sound like that old U2 song. xx Rhonda

U2 means Gary Powers to me and he was enough to spoil anyone's breakfast! Aloha! Rico

I used to live in Phoenix, and near there are the Superstition Mountains, which, according to legend, has lost gold (but I think that's just a myth)

The Superstitions have more lost people than lost gold, as it is a popular tourist attraction. Congratulations on surviving Phoenix, where one drives a block, bakes in the sun for 5-minutes, drives another block, bakes in the sun for 5 minutes, etc. What a way to live! Aloha! Rico
