Treasure Found
I searched beyond the hills and found
A treasure, gold and silver bars
It’s amazing what is in the ground
I’d spent years searching all around
A bounty sealed in Mason jars
I shouted out at what I’d found
Alerted to the beeping sound
Like the sparkling of the hiding stars
It’s amazing what is in the ground
I searched beyond and all around
Resting, waiting, nothing mars
I shouted out at what I’d found
Yet many treasures still abound
Waiting there like brand new stars
It’s amazing what is in the ground
Again I’ll hear that beeping sound
When treasure waits below in jars
I might employ my trusty hound
While searching o’er the country ground
