Treasure of the Pines

Beneath the evergreen

On needled ground

Amid the dropped cones

A treasure was found

How it got there

I haven’t a clue

But it’s been the subject

Of a theory or two

Might it have been placed there

In a time long ago

Using the tree – its location to show

Or might it been dropped

Just the other day

By some passer by

I really can’t say
