the locale on the horizon
did snare his eye
so he ventured there
to give it a try

the crowd applauded
his every action
on them he made
a profound impaction

his conquest of the terrain
was monumental in scale
his venture to other region
netted him a huge bale

through the territory
he blazed a trail of magnificence
these days he's the toast
of all those who pursue his golden opulence
the idea for this poem came from the Shakespearean line ... "he came, he saw and he conquered".
