Disclaimer: I do not own the Lord of the Rings, nor do I own the poem "Stopping By Woods On Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost. I wish I had that poetic genius... not fair...
Authors note: I'm spoofing one of my favorite poems! HEHEHEHEHEHHEHE!
Stopping By Caves During Battle
During the battle in Helm's Deep, Gimli is wounded and finds himself in the Glittering Caves. As he wanders about he begins to put his emotions into verse.
Whose caves these are, I think I know.
His house is called Meduseld though,
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his caves glitter and glow.
My elven-friend does think it queer
To stop and gaze at the caves here
In the hills used for refuge sake
While fierce battle is raging near.
I give my weary head a shake
To make sure there is no mistake
About these caves in old Helm's Deep,
Then enter for my life's at stake.
The caves are lovely, dark, and deep
But I have promises to keep
And orcs to kill before I sleep.
And orcs to kill before I sleep.
