THIS is an era of excavationsSomething to which we all relateI too remembered an ancient caseAnd started digging to excavate Excavation was at a site of briefsTo find a particularly ancient oneIt was laden with several layersAdding to the mystery and the funThe purpose of this excavationWas as old as the rivers and hillsIt was to locate that elusive clientWho'd forgotten to settle my billsBy now everyone in my ChambersWas curious to reach the pile baseThe thought of raking in somethingIgnited an avid interest in the caseThe excavation in the pile of briefsLed to a discovery of several moreWhich were filed and soon forgottenWe wondered what more was in store?Finally the juniors struck the last layerThough it had taken them quite awhileBut the temptation of unbilled mattersHad made this excavation worthwhileHaving finally excavated the sought brief,They dialled the client.Got his son instead.He heard how diligently we had managedAnd informed us that our client was dead!
