As I further diverge
Into the dark and mysterious cave,
My path begins to converge
With riches for me to save.

As I further mine
Into the unknown shaft
I see a gem with a shine
But cannot reach it, alas.

So, I grab my pick, hammer, and *****
To use on the rock that I must invade.
It puts up a fight,
So I use all my might
And destroy the rock
And declare it my rite.

Once I destroyed the rock in the cave
The roof above me began to concave
I run towards the only light that I see,
But there’s only a small hole
That will let me be free

So I drop all my gold, iron, and gems
Because to get through the hole
I cannot bring them.
