Fool's Gold Poem by Laurence Overmire
Fool's Gold
Rating: ★5.0
Pity the poor fools
Scrambling all about
Dithering up the clock
Looking for gold
To brighten their dreary lives
They’re just too blind
To see
The gold is there
Glittering nuggets waiting to be mined
Deep in the dark unclaimed passages
Of themselves.
