Forsaken abandoned old vintage luggage suitcase on the field summer sun light

In a field
Lies all our hopes
Ancient case
Filled with pure gold
Opens hard
With old latches
The dreams of a lifetime sits

Reminds me of when I was young and walked into an old abandoned house and found hundreds of letter strewn all over the floor. Memories, lost forever. Nice write.

Russell couldn't resist doing one of Nette's contests. He loves a good challenge. I decided to post this for him as he used up all his time earlier today. This is one of my favorites of his. Emma :)
