How Long Will This Be Here? Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Skyfire & RandomConfusion: I, the Once-ler, have decided
even if I am misguided,
this place is in need
of something new and exciting.

I, the Once-ler, am ready to cut down
all the Truffala Trees to the ground
so now, oh lover of trees
it's time I remove what your really need.

This cache did not last,
longer than when one year was past.
But now the Super-Axe-Hacker is moving in
so this is the end.

Geocache Description:


I'm the Lorax who speaks for the trees
which you seem to be chopping as fast as you please.
But I'm also in charge of the Brown Bar-ba-loots
who played in the shade in their Bar-ba-loot suits
and happily lived, eating Truffula Fruits.
NOW...thanks to your hacking my trees to the ground,
there's not enough Truffula Fruit to go 'round.
And my poor Bar-ba-loots are all getting the crummies
because they have gas, and no food, in their tummies!

They loved living here. But I can't let them stay.
They'll have to find food. And I hope that they may.
Good luck, boys, he cried. And he sent them away.

I, the Once-ler, felt sad
as I watched them all go.
BUT...
business is business!
And business must grow
regardless of crummies in tummies, you know.

I, the Once-ler, haven't yet cut down
all the Truffala Trees to the ground
so that you, oh lover of trees
can find what is that you really need.

I cannot say how long this will last,
hopefully longer than when one year is past.
But when the Super-Axe-Hacker moves in
that will be the end.
