Mynydd Bach brought four poets fame
On a monument you’ll find their name
decrypt letters from their living years
And a cache location is what appears

This wild tranquil and beautiful location
Is where they sought their inspiration
Amongst the crags with scent of heather
Rolling hills worn by the weather

Looking North Trefenter aligns
With a bunch of wind turbines
East a trig point high on Hafod Ithel
And Fynnon Drewi or Stinky Well
South Llyn Eiddwen’s water blue
and an ugly mast that spoils the view
West is Farm land and Cardigan Bay
Which can only be seen on a sunny day

This mountain top you must pay heed
As swirling mist comes in at speed
If it should meet you, stick to the track
And this should guide you all the way back

After you have made the dash
And found what’s hidden in the cache
If you can find just a little time
Log your visit here in rhyme
It only takes a simple squiggle
To give us all a little giggle!
