((At school we did a poetry unit and we had to keep a poetry journal. Since I'm so obsessed with LotR the majority of the poems I wrote were about LotR I decided to put up some of my better ones here. I have included the Type of poem – Title of Poem – and Date of Poem for each one. Enjoy))
Limerick – Faramir – 4/3/05
There once was a man from Gondor
Whose father loved his brother more.
He'd try and he'd try
To catch his dad's eye
But he could not please Denethor.
Free Poem about food – The Life of a Hobbit – 4/6/05
Oh, what to eat, what to eat?
The bread's gone stale,
The milk has curdled,
The wine's all drunk,
And the pork's been eaten.
Me wife's too busy to make me something
And I'm too lazy to do it myself
Besides, the cellar's much to far to go
To get a lousy piece of cheese.
Well, dear wife, I'm goin' out,
I've had naught to eat in over an hour!
I can hear the Green Dragon a-callin',
And there's nothing here for me to devour.
But don't you worry,
I'll return with time a plenty,
To dine with you for tea.
Clerihew – Fool of a Took – 4/11/05
Pippin, stupid fool of a Took
You should not with large orcs duke
Leave it to the big folk to make the kill
That's how you can help "Mr. Underhill"
