An Early Discovery - poetic story
This is my half of a poetry trade with Bosun (FA) This adventurous wolf happened upon an abandoned temple full of treasure. What a day for her! This was a lot of fun to write. ^_^

A walk through the woods, That's how the day started. The day that my priorities shifted. I remember the scents, The wildlife and plants. The leaves rustling in the wind, Brushing past my silvery fur. My eye catches a strange patch of trees. Dark, like a cave, in the middle of my sunny morning. Now I see the mountainous figure. Slow and light, I tread through the underbrush, Towards the most mysterious of shapes. My mind begins to race, "Have I found my heart's desire? Did this walk fulfill my wantonness?" Now, engulfed in the shadow of the structure, I begin to make out dark green vines. Awe strikes with such ferocity, That I stand with mouth agape, remembering every inch. The massive temple seeps an eerie energy. The entrance is beside me, emitting musty smells. My nose is overwhelmed as I push through the draping vines. The dark is impenetrable, I cannot see a thing. A sigh and frustrated stomp as I think to myself, "I should've brought my sack." Improvised navigation is required here. A paw against the wall, one step after another. Slowly I tread forth. Suddenly the wall disappears. Cold air hugs my falling body until the ground finds me. Solid, dirty stone is what I land on. Shadows, large and ambiguous, scatter the room. I stagger forward, still shocked by the fall, To find that I landed beside a pile of coins and jewels. Here is where I rested and examined my loot. This is a place where dreams are fulfilled, Where my heart soars and dreams once more.
