Author´s note: Again it is just to be said that I own none of professor
Tolkien´s wonderful characters. He is
The one and only!
Encouraged by you very nice review, this is Chapter 5. Hope you
like it! :-)
The Ringfinder
But now let us turn the attention at last
Away from High Elves and from Men of the past,
away from Isildur, away from a lie
that drove Gollum mad and made Déoagol die.
For after long years in the caves´ very night,
he believed in this lie and he forgot the light.
But now listen! For as I have already told
The Ring once left Gollum, whose soal it had sold.
But of whom was it found? What´s the wanderer´s name?
And what part does he play in the world´s stunning game?
For no Wise ever guessed that the Ring might be found
By an innocent hobbit ondut-covered ground.
But let´s leave the Mountains at least for a while
For the Ring´s final finder walked many a mile.
He was not of high birth, nor a big person´s heir,
he was just a small hobbit, who lived in the Shire.
He did not love adventure and had a calm life
That was never disturbed by a manner of strife.
But one day all this changed, when someone knocked his door
And soon countless feet trippled over the floor
Of his clean hobbit-home and the ate and the drank,
and they laughed and they talked and yes! They even sang!
When the hobbit - our Bilbo- asked for their desire
The guests told him he should sit down by the fire....
And they told him a story of plunder and death
Of the deeds of the dwaves and a big dragon´s wrath,
who ages ago stole their silver and gold
which belonged to the dwarves since the days of the Old.
For dwarves were his guests, and a wizard they had To dear Bilbo brought with him; he had a blue hat
And he wore a grey robe and a staff in his hand.
Oh, he was a pilgrim, who had seen the land
From the east to the west, from the south to the north.
Only few knew what powers the wizard brought forth.
Bilbo soon joined their journey, a sword by his side
The hobbit soon had, during days and at night.
The events of that journey shall here not been told
For we want to know how they found mountains cold.
And we now want to hear how it once came to pass
That a hobbit then was the Ring-finder at last.
In a battle with orcs and their king, full of haste
The company fled, and no time they did waste.
And the hobbit got lost in the caves, when he fell
But his friends could escape, but not him, I must tell.
And long he did struggle on dust-covered ground
Until he unknowing a treasure had found.
His hand grabbed the Ring, and he put hit away
In a pocket of his west, further on he did stray
Did not think of the Ring or what the Ring could be.
For now he just wanted again to be free
And smell the cool air and to touch the green grass
And so it did finally then come to pass
That he found Gollum´s cave in foundations of stone
But how will it continue? Well, this will be shown!
