Baltic amber, Baltic amber,
So pretty, so smooth.
How is this?
Why is this 150 million year old fossil so stunning?
Plants, animals, dirt, and bugs,
All stuck in honey glug.
Even a kitty! WOW! How strange to be stuck in honey glug.
Gee, what a pity! To be stuck in honey glug, ha!
But wait, what is this honey gluggy stuff anyway?
Well that honey gluggy stuff is called resin,
The blood of a tree washed up at the shore of Lithuania.
