Book of Days
Poem based on the Memoir written by Forrest Fenn. A chase for a treasure chest hidden in the mountains ends when Forrest Fenn announced "Guy from back east found it".

As I have gone alone in there
And with my treasures bold,
I can keep my secret where,
And hint of new riches and old.
Begin it where warm waters halt
And take it in the canyon down,
Not far, but too far to walk.
Put in below the Home of Brown.
From there it's no place for the meek,
The end is ever drawing nigh;
There'll be no puddle up your creek,
Just heavy loads and water high.
If you've been wise and found the blaze,
Look quickly down, your quest to cease,
But tarry scant with marvel gaze,
Just take the chest go in peace.
So why is it that I must go
And leave my trove for all to seek?
The answers I already know,
I've done it tired, and now I'm weak.
So hear me all and listen good,
Your effort will be worth the cold.
If you are brave and in the wood
I give you title to the gold
Read this poem above Matsur from Uz-back-east-an
Didn’t understand any word or hint from Forrest Fenn
Just kept thinking about the "Home of Brown"
Isn’t the grave our last home and destination?
He started searching for Cemetery Brown
Across the mountains, river and canyon down
He found one in Big Sky Country
Nothing to lose started journey a man free
"Challenge called The Thrill of Chase"
A Memoir written by Forrest Fenn
Hidden in rocky mountain treasure chest
Wrote a poem challenging brave and the best
Fifteen yeas Forrest spent to hide the chest
The spot was his favorite place he said
His aim was to take kids out from their couches to start the quest
To fight laziness and for the jobless an aid
Matsur went to the Cemetery Brown
State of Montana all the way canyon down
He passed the night under canopy of Stars
With every kind animal, imagining dancing with stars
He saw wagons where gypsy sang and danced
He laid to the place where Forrest used to watch
Next day "It is not under wagons" Forrest Fenn announced
Beautiful art places to go than to sit at home on couch
Many wishes and ideas with what to do on mind
Matsur wanted forty orphans to adopt to teach them kind
But refused to take anything from the gold
With full faith he trusted "Life gives me whatever is mine when I am old"
Matsur didn't touch the treasure from the valuable and gold
Remembered his Mother's wise words she has told
"Don't choose gold choose blessing, Blessing worth more than gold"
He took small black notebook and special thing nowhere is sold
Book of Days written on small black notebook
Thanked The Life for making him special
To Forrest Fenn the small black notebook he took
Mr. Fenn encouraged him to write his own book
Paid 20.000$ for a copy with an autograph and flowers
Suggested to show the world his art and solution to his book
Departed Forrest Fenn this road and vale
Still empty hands and nothing he could take even left his book
Don't be sad don't feel bad for not finding the gold of chest
Why you lost hope? there are still treasure out there in different way
Book of Days guides you in full of light in your chest
Don't lose hope to see again Mr. Fenn in a beautiful day
As Matsur was looking for publisher for his book
Ad came to his way from publisher Vocal
Main reason for this challenge he took
Maybe it was destiny to publish his book with Vocal
