Shrouded in mystery, secrets of ancient lore,
Terrified by the whispers from times of yore,
A fossil unearthed, a tale so profound,
A glimpse into history’s mysterious bound.

For a thousand years, hidden in the earth’s embrace,
Lies a secret that time could not erase,
An unborn ‘horse’ fossil, intact and still,
A chilling discovery against nature’s will.

Frozen in time, for 48 million years,
A womb’s silent echo, a cascade of fears,
The remnants of life, preserved in stone,
A haunting reminder of a world long gone.

Imagining the scene, the moment frozen in time,
The unborn ‘horse’ resting in its prime,
A glimpse into the past, a window to the unknown,
A secret so ancient, in silence it’s sown.

Terrified by the secrets that lie beneath,
Whispers of the past, a chilling motif,
Like shadows in the night, they linger and creep,
A fossil’s silent tale, buried deep.

In the stillness of time, this discovery stands,
A relic of the past, in nature’s hands,
The intact fossil, a haunting sight,
A reminder of life’s fragile plight.

As we unravel the mysteries of long ago,
We confront the fears that continue to grow,
Terrified by the secrets of a bygone age,
In the fossil’s silence, we turn the page.
