There is a letter in the alphabet
that sits tween characters named n and p.
In writing this new jingle, I shan't let
it slip within- per stated rules, can't be.
This valued letter- surely, used each day;
a buddy, seen with a, e, i and u.
Required in writing, it can interplay
detailing many things we think and view.
Perhaps it hasn't been missed in this write,
which means I've dealt with this enigma well;
since this essential letter must hang tight-
I have selected further ways that spell,
dismissing that which lies tween n and p-
and using all its buddies- was the key.
