The Poem and Hunt

[Jenny]

GeneticBlend has alerted me of this hunt for an opal ring. (thank you) (I'm in progress of a Six Questions: coming soon)

It was inspired by The Secret, and although it doesn't include an image, the poem has the feel of The Secret's poems. Exciting!

The poem for the RING can be found on Andrew Layden's website.


Hopefully someone from this site can find the RING! Best of luck to all!

Thanks for adding this to your forum Jenny!

I hope we can get some discussion going.

And thanks to Andrew for creating the poem and free hunt.

Don't know why, but the poem makes me think of street art.

If I didn’t live in Arkansas and lived closer to NY, I’d be looking for the ring tomorrow.
I couldn’t figure out “feather of three” or “Son”.
I agree, “isle of many mounts”, is Manhattan.
“To royal reflections And rebel roots”, refers to Columbia Univeristy.  It was originally King’s college, founded by Royal charter, and renamed Columbia College after the Revolutionary War by the rebels.
”The place of pale leaves,” is a library at Columbia, Low Memorial Library.  Out front is a statue of Alma Mater, which appears to have a grey patina. (Grey eyes watch over)
“Where panic pauses To play a tune”, is a statue of the Great God of Pan, which is to the left side of Low Library as you face it.  Pan is lying down relaxing and starting to play on his musical instrument.
Pan was sculpted by George Grey Barnard.  I took his name to hint at grey eyes earlier.
”Look low”, this could mean look down low or it’s a hint to Low Library.
If I went, I would start at the Pan statue and search around it and between it and Low Library.
You can google The Great God Pan sculpture, and see a photo.  In the background is the side and part of the front of Low Library.
Hope this helps someone.

Maybe hidden in ivy or tree roots. Layden's poems on his blog refers to tree roots and ivy as tendrils.

Razorback, I think you are right.

I sure would like to figure out the feather of three and Son thing.
Maybe someone close by can go search.

Great work razorback!

Thanks, I hope it’s correct, and someone finds the ring.
