Archeology calls for application
\nUnflagging efforts needed every day
\nWorking on the sites the teams
\nShow patience
\nSlowly brushing dust and crud Away
\nPompei site of the very big eruption
\nBack in 79AD
\nWhen Vesuvius erupted and in minutes
\nThe city was enveloped Tragically<\/p>\n
The citizens were too slow and were
\nKilled it seems
\nRecently a splendid cache was found
\nThought to be originally in a wooden box
\nOnly it\u2019s hinges remaining
\nOn the ground
\nSmothered in the dust and all the pumice
\nTenaciously they brushed away and found
\nWhat seemed to be a cache of precious stones
\nAnd artefacts
\nA sorcerers treasure trove there on the ground<\/p>\n
Amethysts and amber scarabs lying there
\nPerhaps La Strega was overcome
\nWe have to be aware
\nThat not so far away
\nMount CAlvario
\nAmong those rolling hills
\nA town was born
\nColobraro the land of the Strega
\n\u201cCHILLU PAESE\u201d known
\nto this very day
\nHaunted with a terror that puts the wind up people
\nGruesome and macabre
\nThe people say<\/p>\n
Petrified the town and all its inhabitants
\nStartled at the mountains dreadful roar
\nDread and Awe and trembling palpitation
\nThat vast great throat of fire
\nFor evermore
\nTransfixed in time and now still
\nTo this very day
\nPicking over the ruins clearly they
\nUnearthed what look like carnelian
\nAnd lots of hocus pokus
\nWhilst the river SINNI still goes on it\u2019s way<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
