Grassland, Heathland – Aberford (The West Yorkshire Hoard), June 2020

The wandering has happened, I have walked the land and been used to search.
Today, I am on foot with purpose,
I stray off the usual paths to get to the spot.
It appears. The setting is right, the decision has been made.
The tread is now light, the objects placed down.
They have come to rest. I can now rest.
