Two Men, four hobbits, a dwarf and an elf,

Oh, and we can't forget Mr. Gandalf himself,

All stuck on a mountaintop in the freezing cold,

Oh, what terrible tale shall this predicament unfold?

***

Gandalf the wizard

Was caught in a blizzard.

Unfortunately, though, he could not have been alone,

For eight other bodies had to accompany his own.

Gandalf's eyes swept over the forms of his fellow comrades,

Resentment clearly directed towards the other eight lads.

His eyes landed first upon the future King of Gondor.

He winced upon seeing the filthy garments Aragorn wore.

Next into his vision came Boromir the cowardice Steward,

Producing in Gandalf's mind a pleasant image of him being skewered.

Then he turned his gaze to the Ringbearer Frodo.

Stupid hobbit always has to be the talk of the show.

Sitting next to Frodo was his loyal sidekick Sam.

Gandalf snickered as he thought, 'I am Sam, Sam I am'.

His mirth dissipated as quickly as it came,

As soon as he set eyes upon Merry the shame.

Merry and Pippin were two of a kind.

Fool of a Took! he barked in his mind.

Worse was the temper of Gimli, who next came into his eyes.

His temper was humongous, although his body was pint-size.

Finally, Gandalf came upon the bane of his existence, Legolas.

"That blasted elf!" he yelled, trying to get his message across.

Alas, no one noticed, for they were too caught up in the cold.

Everyone except for Legolas, who was busy prancing over the snow.

How he wished he could wipe that arrogant smirk off that blasted elven face!

And cast a spell that would cause him to vanish without a single bit of trace!

Gandalf the Grey was fuming with anger and resentment,

Until his mind produced a plan that would result in instant contentment.

Legolas was happily skipping and singing to himself,

When suddenly a scream emerged from the mouth of the elf.

Everyone looked on in shock as Legolas tumbled off the mountaintop,

And fell to his death down the thirty thousand foot drop.

A satisfied smile crept up Gandalf's face, and he emitted an evil laugh,

As he returned to original position his "Legolas-tripping" staff.

The rest turned to Gandalf, admiration in their eyes.

He succeeded where they hadn't in causing Legolas's demise!

Hoisting their leader onto their shoulders, they shouted, "Gandalf's the best!",

And, with renewed vigor, the fellowship minus Legolas proceeded on their quest.
