Guys this is an Acrostic poem, meaning it has a hidden message inside it. The message is written in a certain pattern, with each line containing one letter.

The person who cracks the message first will receive 25 SDB from me. First comment with the correct answer will win. Good luck!


Longing for worth a poet goes a mile,

   Rough quest for metaphors and words.

Moved rocks, where water does not find aisle,

  Mere lyrics, our lines flow towards.


Bright proverbs among golden verse,

  Dull pages of the same old writing.

Define sorrow; describing lover's curse;

  Judge none; our quest’s far, but exciting!


Muse is a godsend; A triumph over tame,

  Love for an author is a blessing.

Alas! Those individuals acclaim

   That fondness never turns obsessing.


Do not become awarded with that slyness,

   The search for meaning can be wide.

Don't stumble over ponds of dryness,

   Do not devote your soul to finding a bride.

    Love has no answers :)
    Thank you for nice poem :)

    As @slayer mentioned below
    L = 1st letter of the 1st line
    o = 2nd letter of the 2nd line
    and so on

    Thanks for the puzzler! On wikipedia, it was also interesting to read about different cultures and their use of the Acrostic form of writing .
