What the Ring Means
Echo the Nymph
Disclaimer: I don't own Lord of the Rings.
What does the Ring mean to me? What a silly thing to say,
For I am but a centaur who's light helped show the way.
Wars, courage and friendship cast aside,
This creation of evil conquered all free lands.
In a last and desperate attempt the Last Alliance
Fought the dark and shadowy band.
The Ring was then by Isildur taken,
Leaving his elven kindred standing by the flames.
Lost unto all of light, it sank in a river,
Flames within cooling to but embers.
Deep into the mountains was borne the ring
By one called Smeagol, the Ring Bearer Gollum.
Forgotten it was still when found by Bilbo Baggins.
Passed unto his cousin, nephew, son of his heart.
Destroyed in Mount Doom only to be forged anew.
Darkness crept into Harlindon, huntresses strengthened once more.
Courage unto me was bestowed, Fire of the Soul.
One of the Fellowship became I, a huntress alone.
Friendships forged, became strong with the light.
Wars brought darkness that we lit.
This One Ring and its Dark Lord brought
The Fellowship together into the light.
I see now what it means to me,
Friendship, love and life.
Balanced all by the darkness of Mordor.
What does the Ring mean to me? That's not so silly to say,
For I am but a centaur who's light helped show the way.
