A/N: So this sonnet took me quite a long time to write. I tried to use iambic pentameter, which was for me definitely not easy. Anyway here it is and I hope you will enjoy it. I learned a lot when creating it.

Nan Elmoth

by Sidi

Oh! Nan Elmoth shadowy forest so dark
resplendent sunlight falters in its wake
the only bird that lingers here is lark
from highs in slender tendrils Celon will break

In dimmest shade, tall and bleak are the trees
he, kin of Teleri, so noble yet grim of face
his household deep in colors cast, never frees
the one who gladly dwelt within its maze

the Lady highborn, sister of the king
as moonlight pale, grand and strong, now but thin
sorrow severe, caught, the gloominess sting
her yearning strong for Gondolin blooms within

Nan Elmoth's elder trees don't let her pass
Aredhel, the Lady white is bewitched, Alas!
