The Deeper We Dig

Where is it?
Oh! My perfect patch of dirt
Start to dig
Deeper, deeper and deeper
Soft, moist soil is a good sign
That the trees are happy
Healthy
Climbing should be easy with so many great
Strong branches
As we dig deeper
Little bugs appear
Worms and grubs,
Squelch
There’s a slug
So alive with wildlife
We’ll hopefully find some treasure
Or long forgotten memories
Old notebooks and diaries
That were kept secret for years
The deeper we dig
