The Hidden Fortune

Title: The Hidden Fortune

An 11-year-old’s sheer delight,
A plot of land, seemingly trite,
Unwanted and dismissed with disdain,
Yet, little did they know, an oilfield’s domain.

Within the depths, a secret kept,
Millions in oil, unseen, unmet,
Beneath the surface, a treasure unfold,
Turning barren soil into liquid gold.

The young heart, innocent and brave,
Tending the land with hope to save,
Dreams ignited, as oil wells gushed,
The future’s fortune forever brushed.

From barren wasteland to thriving land,
An unexpected wealth they had in hand,
A lesson learned, for young and old,
Don’t judge by appearances, let stories unfold.

The world marveled at this young child,
Whose undesired land now exquisitely styled,
A reminder to all, life’s possibilities,
Are hidden within unforeseen realities.

So let us cherish the dreams we hold,
For in uncharted lands, fortunes untold,
May this tale kindle the fire in our soul,
To believe in the magic and reach for our goal.
