Burrow deep, as far as you can go,
That's where all the treasure is buried, you know.
When the surface jewels have all run dry,
Much deeper still, the last spot left to try.
You make this world turn around
All beloved for we don't see under-ground,
The scars a reminder of our need,
Our all-consuming and voracious greed.
Hidden from our apathetic eyes,
Content we choose to believe the lies.
But one day soon we will be caught,
And our feeble try will be for nought,
For this our most rare and precious earth,
Will shake us loose in grand rebirth.

An attempt to write a poem a day for a whole year... no guarantees on quality - just quantity!
A poem a day to keep brain rot away
Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!
May 3rd, 2012
Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!
