I wrote this poem based on lines from the song, "Song of the Lonely Mountain" by Neil Finn. I was particularly drawn to the line "Fiery mountain/ Beneath the moon" and the line "And all who find us/ Will know the tune."

Beneath the Moon

Trudging ever onward,

We've a home to reclaim soon

We see the fiery mountain,

Glowing red beneath the moon

Long forgotten halls we seek,

And pale, enchanted gold,

Looking ever onward, we

Hold fast to dreams of old

Following the dwarven map,

Reading the ancient runes

We see the lonely mountain,

Glowing pale beneath the moon

Elves will never hinder us,

We will escape someday,

Running ever onwards on

Some long forgotten way

Singing ancient songs of old-

All we find will know the tune,

We see the misty mountain

Glowing bright beneath the moon

Arriving now upon the lake

Our mountain we shall claim,

Fighting Smaug to claim our stone

We'll never be the same

Making ready for the fight to come

In this vast and empty tomb,

We claim the once-lost mountain,

Glowing soft beneath the moon

Ready now, we march to war,

Slaying friend and later foe,

Our loss will be far greater than

We could ever wish to know

No longer trudging onward,

We play a saddened tune

As we stand inside a mountain,

Glowing faint beneath the moon

Going ever onward, tell

All who'll listen to this tale,

Of a king inside his mountain

Forever lying still and pale
