Youth Eternal

by Bethuviel

Note: I wrote this poem while reading LOTR. I had already seen the movies and was curious about the authors original work. When I had completed reading the novels, I felt as though I had lost my best friend, there was no more of that world or beings, that the journey I had been taken on was complete. Now I revisit the books and movies often, as well as plenty of fanfic.

I wrote this in dedication to those novels, the world it contains, and it's characters.

Disclaimer: I do not own the middle earth, it's characters or plot, J.R.R. Tolkien does. I do however own this poem. Hope you enjoy it, and all reviews are appreciated.

Majestic talons soaring above the clouds

Redemption from on high

Silver threads forever entwined

On a sparrow's sigh

The red petal an everlasting bloom

A promise of tomorrow

Bright as the warmth of the color

Can never know the sorrow

Moisture sliding down the blade

Sparkles prisms of light

The eternal youth

Dancing in flight
