Selected Poems

by Tyalie

Recently, I've been writing pages ang pages of poems. So I decided to make a collections of my best Tolkien related ones for ff.net. [Poem 1- Remember when Gandalf says, "I will not tell you do not weep"?]

1. Untitled Poem I

Selected Poems By Tyalie

Well, after my wonderful summer in New York, I started writing all these poems. So, I decided to post a collective summary of my Tolkein related ones.

Disclamer: I do not own Lord of the Rings, I merely poke at the letters until they move. I am not making any money from this.

I will not tell you do not weep.

Night is when the stars are brightest

Dark is when the world is deepest

Winter's when the sky's whitest

Rapture's when the mind is steepest

Cool is when the sense is clearest

Alone is when the self is dearest

Grey is when the shade is lightest

Need is when the friend is fearless

And not all tears are evil.

This piece is more or less untitled. I wrote it in about five minutes, which is usually the case with any of my poetry worth keeping. I was hoping to express how things normally considered 'bad' can be wonderful.

EDIT: Jan.11.05 - I fixed the meter somewhat, changed a few words, and removed a line.
