Amongst the moon, the triad joins,
Seek out the talent,
I hold through life,
Although It has no path.

A wise old man,
With royalty,
will always lead the way
along the third bright road.

Does the riddle 'give instructions' like my riddle did? Since you say the first line isn't meant to say what it says, this part could be instructions:

Seek out the talent, - The talent = a word or phrase?
I hold through life, - Could be something wordplay-ish too
Although It has no path. - A hint of an anagram maybe?

Or is my brain stuck on word play?
