Count backwards from four (but don’t say three),
You’ll find you’re close to home with me.
In the tall grass where I can’t be seen,
I’m hiding here—unless the deer intervene!

The students are gone, the lessons are old,
Yet I remain — steadfast and cold.
The years have worn my glory thin,
Seek where the roots of honor begin.

You may think this clue is a dead end, it’s true
With snacks and sales distracting you.
But skip the deals and change your view—
Look where the birds might shop, not you.

a holy mother, a faithful prayer
the smell of flowers, not despair
a red of petals, not of flame
beneath their watch your prize lays claim

trains hum low and creak above
but what you seek dreams of
pastures on the right side
if you are clever, you'll find its stride

Among the blooms where roses lean,
A quiet throne is barely seen.
Behind the walls that hide the seat,
A secret waits where wood and shadow meet.

near the king, but not in his castle
where over piles rats might scrattle
lies your token, sheathed in metal
hidden from light, under a box, you must unsettle

In the ravine where students roam,
A steadfast pillar claims its home.
beneath the steeple and a stone
a trash panda's prize will be shown

spin your wheels - you may have to
my hiding place in not in plain view
i'm at the corner in my wooden nook
tucked away like the pages of a book
