From time immemorial,
From generations past,
Centuries prehistoric,
Decades gone,
And millenniums faded,
At the depths of man's heart,
The quest has laid,
And in his life,
The search lingered,
A search it is,
For where lies the riches of life,
And a quest it has remained,
For what harbors the treasures of humanity,
A search it is,
Embedded with a desire for acquisition of wealth so great,
And of satisfaction so immense,
A quest it exists as, for the endowment the world proffers,
Now at last, with much reflections,
With meditations intense,
Thoughts insightful,
And ruminations inspirational,
The veil of ignorance has been torn apart,
The hood of misconception blown away,
The shield uncovered and the revelations of the real roots magnified;
For not in the gold mines of nations does the treasure lie,
Not in the oil wells of the delta are the riches cradled,
Not even in rubies, diamonds, emeralds and jasper-precious stones are they sealed,
But in the GRAVE!
TO BE CONTINUED...
