Much to my surprise, was a pond of gold, a treasure I surely couldn't wait to hold. It was dropped by dreamers of the past, all hoping for some miracles to be cast.

So I found a rope and climbed to the end, to get my reward, my new best friend.

I stuffed my pockets and filled my shirt, until this pond turned into dirt.....
Dreams were sought,
