There and Back Again...

Poetry inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's masterworks: The Similarion, The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings

Note: I am not a poet. I just dabble.


When All This Is Said and Done

Come one and all

Be merry, be gay!

For we must now venture

In a time that has long past,

When stories seemed to be

Built to last.

I am not the original,

Nor am I a fraud,

I am not a professional,

Or a façade.

Rather an amateur

A proud one at that.

Some may be rhymed like this,

Others free verse,

But never will you find a curse.

They'll be stories,

Legends,

Things of unknown.

Places to be seen,

People to know.

And when all this is said

And done,

We hopefully will have had

The best of fun.
