Thanks tabitha. I am sorry for my grievous error dreamer. :( Apparently I lack both the ability to create and the ability to properly appreciate fine art.
I'm ready to spill the beans on the poem. Husband is unsufferably pleased with himself. :)
Clue #1 V is W in latin
Clue #2 Norman Manetta - That clue is my husband's and is totally useless to any but a brainiac like himself (Norman Manetta is apparently director of transportation)
Clue #3 Some of the words are not actual Latin words but Latin sounding words. (Per husband, my one semester of Latin does not prepare me to confirm this).
Confession: Husband just admitted that he read this somewhere years ago and is in fact not the author. No plagiarism was intended, just a young man's natural wish to impress his lady love. And he knew how sexy I find intelligence. (grin)
