Buried Treasure

by E Dacaf   Mar 29, 2012


Once held dear, I dazzled brightly.
Over many hands I slowly faded.
Even brightest jewels wont shine,
With dirt upon their hides.
Forget me in the sand,
bury me in empathy.
I am buried treasure.

    I agree there is a certain appeal to this free verse, seemingly simple. It could do better with some grammatical revisions. Congratulations.
