The Teasure behind the Veil
The Treasure Behind the veil
Some men spend their whole lives in search of treasure. It would seem that this quest is their only pleasure.
Seeking to find that which (to some) is forever lost. Un-dissuaded by the prospect of pain or loss.
Over the mountains, through the valleys and across the Oceans they sail. Pressing toward their hidden bounty and fearlessly vowing not to fail.
Every man has his own fortune to seek and destiny decides if she is found. If fate says it is so, she cannot be hidden, not even underground.
Surely, they say to me," what treasure do you do you seek?" to what cache are you compelled. And I answer, I know of no greater treasure on Earth than the one behind your veil.
