    Poem Commentary

    There is a name hidden within this poem...

    My Friend’s Name Herein Lies

    My friend’s name herein lies,
    Between these lines I write.
    Her name is here, before your eyes,
    Here hidden within your sight.
    A riddle I’ve written within these words,
    Lost within this little verse.
    Lost without ever having been found.
    Here with each letter carefully placed,

    Painting beautiful pictures in your mind.
    It is not hard to find what you’re looking for.
    It’s just a small quest for any man.
    It’s something for you to discover.
    It is something for you to uncover.

    JAmie, This poem's is unique and mysterious. I like that there is some ambiguity as I often prefer that for multiple interpretation. ty ginga

    The poem is well written and it presents a challenge to the reader as well. I'm not much for riddles so I will pass on the challenge.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
