OK, here is another day calendar poem (what else?) This is my mom's favorite, and she doesn't even like Orcs! It must be the way it's written. Anyway, the picture is a head and shoulders shot of an Uruk-hai that looks a lot like Lurtz, but isn't Lurtz.


"Uruk-hai"

Born with one purpose to fulfill,
One desire stirs his black heart:
The race of Men to seek out and kill;
To destroy, raze, and tear apart.

A work of genius, flesh and blood,
From a race of Orcs perfected;
Born in slime and filth and mud,
Vengeance forever infected.

A mind enslaved to do the will
Of the master of his creation;
Hunting the lands with inborn skill,
Lust for blood his motivation.

An immortal race of evil pawns
In a game the Powers play.
A race with beauty and innocence gone;
A life forever gray.

Well, thank you again. That's OK, it must be hard to come up something different to say every time I put up a poem! I'm glad you like it. I don't know, maybe you could tell me what you DON'T like about it! That would different! (You don't have to if you don't want to though ;) :grin: )

That's excellent Wil!
I espcially like the last couple of verses that give the other view of them.
