'Thoughts of Galadriel'

[Naurind]

I don't consider this one of my best (in fact, I won't put my best on the net), and I only wrote it yesterday after reading a few of the poems in this forum.

:elfqueen:

I can now see the rise of the tower
Morning dew hath now melted away
For the dim winter nights bring new power
To a land that pleads I will stay.

It is not that I wish for forgiveness
For the anguish I brought to my plight
But my soul longs for what lies in the West
And my spirit can no longer fight

‘Neath the trees I have found a new haven
Flowers bloom under leaves that are gold
Yet the days are as black as the Ravens
And the nights as Kirinkis so bold

I have loved Middle-earth since I came here
I have fought for its treasures and grace
But the ships of the Eldar are fast drawing near
And this land shall be left to a faltering race

Yet I can do nothing but give them respite
And gifts of true heart they will bear
It is not the Elves who will win this fight
But the strength of those who follow the Heir

[Beregond]

That's really good. I like "And this land shall be left to a faltering race" That's cool. Good Job.

[Gil-Galad]

Its very good. Why wont you post your best on the net. Afraid someone will pirate one?

[WinterSoul]

Great! Great ! Great!
Very very good poem
Seems like Beregons always likes some particular parts :)
Well just letting you know that i like it all ! :)

....
It is not the Elves who will win this fight
But the strength of those who follow the Heir
.....
Lovely! Just like the rest of the poem !
KEEP IT UP!

Thank you for your compliments. :)

Yes, Gil-Galad, I'm afraid someone will steal from me. Once I have enough poems to make a collection, then I'll publish them... And then, I'll stick them on the net.

:stomper:

I read the History of Celeborn and Galadriel about three weeks ago, and it seems Galadriel's story has stayed in my mind.

That's two poems that have come out of Unfinished Tales now.

(you'll have to wait till that collection's published before you see the first one)

:cool:

Thank you all again,

[Beregond]

That's cool.
