Erm. This has been bouncing around in my brain for quite some time. It's
rather unfinished, but it won't leave me alone. So here 'tis.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Noble, honourable beyond all thought
For the freedom of all Middle-Earth he fought
To die for his cause he was never afraid
Although not a king, he had showed he was brave
Captain of Gondor! there are none more brave
Than Faramir was on that early spring day
Sent into peril unthanked and unblessed
Although he was saved he can never find rest.
He almost perished on Denethor's pyre
To his living flesh they almost set a fire
But then Gandalf came and he rescued the man
Who was brought back to life by King Elessar's hand.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know it's a bit inaccurate with the eighth line, but ah well. That's
Faramir's. Next is Legolas'! (I promise, no Leggybashing. No,
seriously!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The leaves have fallen and the year flees.
Who will refill my cup for me?
The Lady is gone, and Half-elven too.
I cannot refill your cup for you.
The sons of Elrond, they are still here.
And Gimli, my dwarf-friend, is ever near.
But I heard calls of gulls on the shore
And my heart rests in forests no more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I may be back with a Commodore Norrington one sometime. Mrrngh.
Namarie,
AOM
