Rotten To the Core

9/15/16 Across the lands and shores Plants and spores So much life in different shapes and forms Many storms cold or warm Always been an omnivore So I eat vegetables like corn And meats like albacore and boar I don't care about the odds on the board It's about so much more And not just the reward I'll continue to row without an oar Near and far from the seafloor As well as any trees such as sycamore One up the highest score And maintain a good rapport I've always had an interest in lore Minerals and ores I'm not rich or technically poor Worse than any apple, some people rotten to the core Such foolish things people support And over such petty stuff people go to war Still there are areas on this Earth that have yet to be explored And possible fossils of new dinosaurs Looking up at the full moon shining beyond so many other orbs By: Dalton Ogletree
