A/N: Just some philosophical fluff this time. I've got no idea why I keep writing them in English. Maybe because German language isn't as easily to shorten. ^.~ One thing: Believe me, I know how hard it is to comment on poetry, but PLEASE at least tell me if you DON'T like them, okay? Because in that case, I'll stop bothering you.
Disclaimer: Here, I need one, so – as we all know – Estel belongs to Tolkien, of course. Just like his destiny.

thus grinned
Estel the child:
once I'll be king
then I'll decide
and I will make
that everyone
who'd like will get
a chocolate cake
*
thus spoke
Estel the youth:
as king I will
abolish hate
and I will make
that love between
all different folks
shall not be fake
*
thus swore
Estel the man:
as king I can
think of some laws
and I will make
all people free
so no one's life
will be at stake
*
thus vowed
Estel the king:
now I am king
and war is done
and I will make
in all my lands
a lovely peace
to overtake
*
thus laughed
Estel the wise:
now that I'm old
I'm not quite sure
what's yet to make
except – maybe –
for my beloved
a chocolate cake
