ODE TO A CROW
THERE ONCE WAS A CACHER WHO TOOK THE NAME OF A BIRD
ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP A FELLOW OUT WITHOUT A NEGATIVE WORD
THERE CAME A TIME WHEN AS FAR AS THE CROW FLEW ON A TANK OF GAS
NOT A NEW AREA COULD THE CROW FIND TO PLANT A NEW STASH
THE AUTHOR OF THIS SHORT ODE TOOK THIS TO HEART
AND SET OUT TO FIND A NEW PARK SO I COULD DO MY PART
TO RELIEVE THE BIRDS NAMESAKE FROM HIS DILEMMA
WE ALL KNOW IT’S HIS LOVE OF THE SEARCH FOR EPHEMERA
WITH MOMMA D AND THE KNOCKHEADS HELPING ME OUT
WE SURVEYED CHITTENDEN COUNTY FROM LAKE TO MOUNT
FINDING LOTS OF NEW PLACES WHERE TO PLY OUR PASTIME
THIS IS THE FIRST OF MANY NEW SPOTS WHICH WILL COME WITH TIME
WE DEDICATE THIS LITTLE MULTICACHE TO CROWBAIT
A FELLOW CACHER WHO IS QUITE WILLING TO CACHE ON ANY GIVEN DATE
IN ORDER TO FIND THE FIRST STAGE OF OUR LITTLE MULTI CACHE HUNT
ONE DOES NOT HAVE TO DO ANY SPECIAL TRICKS OR STUNT
YOU ONLY HAVE TO SOLVE ONE VERY SIMPLE SET OF CODED LETTERS
WHICH WITH THE AUTHORS PENCHANT FOR CODE, EVERY ONE DOES BETTER
DO NOT MAKE THIS ANY MORE DIFFICULT THAN NEEDED
THE KEY TO SOLVING THIS CODED VERSE IS CLOSE INDEED

STAGES ONE, TWO, THREE AND FOUR ARE FOUND BOTH HIGH AND LOW
BUT DUE TO THE CROW PERCHES ABOVE MAKE SURE YOU GO SLOW!
PLEASE EXCUSE THE VERSE AS POETRY IS NOT MY PROFESSION
THOUGH I WILL TRY ANYTHING TO FEED THIS MUTUAL OBSESSION
PARKING IS QUITE NEAR
WHICH MAKES THIS ONE DEAR
STAY TUNED FOR MORE
CAUSE WITHOUT CACHES LIFE IS A BORE
