If I Were a 49er

I heard all the newspaper news that gold was found.  There were three main ways to get there to California.  One was on land, the next was on a boat, and you could go through Panama.

I got there.  I found gold.  I was cold.  I got dirty, but I did not give up.  I found gold!  Hooray!

I got lots of gold.  It was not just gold, but the hugest piece!

I went home after.
