Buried Treasure

Buried Treasure

Those who tell the story
keep the version simple

Free of any messy complexity
to cloud the narrative
or contradict their
black and white slant

At the end of the tale
when the last page has turned
tis up to the reader to discern
any and all truth they can find
taking up residence between the lines

Hi Richard I just love this, it is so true 
Many a time I have read poetry and had a totally 
different perception to what the writer was trying to 
portray 
Great write
