Uplifting and Inspirational Poetry EVERY DAY from Simon J. Halliday!

Deep beneath the frozen earth
Lies something hidden of unknown worth
A treasure for adventurous souls
To find at will, with joy and mirth

Not to give the game away
I’ll keep it quiet until the day
That someone questions just enough
To bring the answer into play

And then the quest has just begun
For no-one knows beneath the sun
Just where this treasure is quietly lain
Its prime objective – to bring us fun

So searching every land and sea
The people try to set it free
But silently it never stirs
Elusive still, this mystery

I haven’t told you anything real
Or truths you might wish I’d reveal
Yet minds are subtle you may yet find
A thing of worth will have a seal

It’s only when the student’s time
Has reached the point of facing crime
And fearless, marches through it all
With knowledge of life beyond sublime

The answers lie in patient wait
Whilst students cry with fear and hate
So rise from life and search through time
The biggest fish takes all the bait

And does he live or does he die?
Does he sing or does he cry?
The capsule still lies hidden in time
So search, my friend, for time can’t lie
