Book of Scarborians IV

The shores washed in peace 
and after a crushing year
Thyme felt free to live.
Steadily at first, they walked
across the beach to the fair.

They noticed a man
digging while his sister told him,
"Parsley, it's not here."
Thyme approached the twins in awe
"You're digging," they asked, "for what?"

Parsley said, "Treasure."
His sister tried to brief Thyme,
"Don't mind him. I'm Sage,
this is my brother Parsley.
We're on a scavenger hunt."

Thyme said, "My name is..."
and glanced at the rolling tides,
"Ty. My name is Ty."
Sage smiled, "Nice to meet you, Ty.
Are you going to the fair?"
