The Return Of The King
Golden wings fly to skies
Skies of black cloud, dusty
Plains beneath dulls the middle earth
Orcs march to the white tree
The white tree was planned to fall
To fall at Sauron's feet
But Gondor prevailed
They fought in return of Mordor's challenge
All looked bleak
But the Riders of Rohan and
The Army of the Dead
Aided the one true king
To save all of mankind
And all others who gave in this troublesome time
Elves, Dwarves and Ents,
Hobbits, Wizard and Man alike
Will they fall with little hope?
Or will they gain victory with much courage?
For courage is man's greatest advantage and asset
Aragorn, the one true king to Gondor's throne
Led the Army of the Dead
For he gave them his word
Word that would lift their eternal curse
They swept across the evil Orcs
Oliphants and creatures alike
They were slain till there were Orcs none
Frodo and his trusted servant
Followed the creature that was Gollum
Or Smeagol in other tongues
They climbed the steps
That led them to only Gollum knew where
One of the two Hobbits was doubtful of their guide
Samwise Gamgee was his name
He knew not to trust Gollum
He tried desperately to dissuade Frodo
But to no avail.
When Frodo realised Gollum had betrayed his trust
But alas, it was too late
Sam had left, returning down the stairway
Frodo was alone when he met her
Shelob was her name
Queen of the shadows
Mistress of weavers
For that was her skill
Frodo fought bravely
Holding high his Elven light
It shined on his escape
But Shelob beat him still
Sam did come back, in time
But not before she plundered her sting
Into Frodo, wrapping him in her web
Sam made her flee, made her hurt
He went to Frodo's side
But Sam thought Frodo dead
Orcs were heard.
Sam took the one ring
To keep it hidden; keep it safe
The enemy came
And took Frodo away
Sam heard their talk
And scolded himself for leaving Frodo.
He went in his way to retrieve his friend
He posed great threat
To quarrelling Orcs above in tower
He rescued whom he thought dead
Frodo woke when Orcs were near
His Elven vest and Sword taken
But Sam soon came for him
And gave time for Frodo to dress
Frodo, thinking the one ring gone
In their enemy's hands
But Sam produced the one ring
He gave back what was not found
In guise they went through Mordor
For that was the only way
Towards the mountain of doom they approached
The rocky side leering at them
Aragorn, great in victory at the recent battle
Knew were Frodo and his friend Sam
Were in the black heart of Mordor
He knew the red eye was looking for them
And discussed in council
Legolas, Gandalf, Gimli, Merry and Pippin
All worried for the two little Hobbits
Knowing a distraction was needed
Spoke of challenging Mordor's black gates
Faramir was none too certain
But knew in his heart
What he would do, if needed
Would fight for the distraction
So the conclusion came
The remaining armies of
Rohan, Gondor and others good
Would go to Mordor's gates
Aragorn gave his men plenty of good word
Spurring them on went forth to the gate
Legolas, Gimli, Gandalf and one of the many men
Went with Aragorn, the king of men
Aragorn attained Sauron's attention
For which, even though they did not know it
Frodo and Sam were grateful
They travelled up the steep slope
Tired and worn
Sam carried Sam till he had strength none
Frodo waking saw the entrance
And sped towards it
Sam followed but not for long
He was jumped upon
By none other than Gollum
Gollum's hunger for his lost precious
Gave him strength
After pushing away the hobbit Sam
He ran after Frodo
Frodo stood on the edge
In half mind of the future of the one ring
Should he keep it?
Why not keep it?
He gave in to the one ring
Sam was indeed too late
But in a strange turn of events
Gollum saved Frodo in his greed
Gollum bit Frodo's finger
And at last he was returned what was lost to him
But Frodo was angry, finger gone
Went at the creature
Both went over the edge
Dangling by one rock, Frodo held
Gollum, powered by his thirst
Fell in fire
The ring finally unmade
No longer did Sauron reign
Gondor's last fight
Came to an end
Orcs, Trolls and Uruk-hai's
Were stopped in their tracks
A great rumbling was heard
But not from Mordor's black army
It came from the ground on which they stood
The ground opened and all evil fell into its mouth
Gondor and Rohan and others alike
Looked at the mountain of doom
What remained of the fellowship
Fell into silence
Question was,
Was Frodo and Sam sill alive?
Or did they perish?
They had hope they had lived
Gandalf asked for Eagle's aid
And help they did give
They flew what once Mordor reigned by Sauron
They searched long and hard
Frodo and Sam clung onto the rock
They were tired from their long journey
Three eagle arrived and took them on high
Gently lifting them in their talons
Bad times gone good came
Aragorn now king of Gondor
He was reunited with his one true love
Arwen, Elrond's daughter
Elrond gave his daughter away
And all was well once more
