“X marks the spot.”

Folks say that a lot.

Is it here, is it there?

On the ground, in the air?

How much time do we spend

Going over hill, round the bend?

What treasure to we seek?

At what items do we fail to peek

As we go from Point A to Point B

In search of why “X” is the key?

They’ll continue to say “X marks the spot.”

What I value most is already tucked in my heart.
