A month of madness

Treasure hunters.

Here come Robert and Earl
Metal detectors in hand.
What sort of treasures, will they find at leisure
in the earth all over the land.

Archaeology wonders
Like a ring all silver and bright
Saxon? No ring pull, think its from red bull
Shame it bought them less delight

I heard near the village of Nutley
They had found a rare burial hole
Animal bones plenty, well least under twenty
and a collar and kitty cats bowl

Near Lewes  they had just started
when they found an object in the ground
Digging it roughly as ever so toughly 
They discovered the object was round

A cannonball? Said Robert just guessing 
Course it is. Answered Earl
Then it started humming and they started running
and they heard the explosion in Firle
