Something, I Suppose

Let me read you something, Something I discovered. I found it in the attic, Or possibly the cellar; Although it may have been In the cluttered basement. I dug holes in the ground— It may have been there, Like a time capsule Or buried pirate's treasure. A bottle washed ashore— Perhaps the piece which I must read was there. In any original place, It holds words of utmost Importance to all. So let me read you something, Something I discovered. Oh, but literacy is learned, Not an inherent talent, So, I do lament, I have forgotten what it says.
