Now, there is no place for poems, and I cannot start a new thread in the place where I think it could go, I will post it here, even though I expect it to get moved. (was that a run-on sentence? whatever
)
Anyway, I entered a poetry contest, and the poem I entered was one that I wrote my freshman year. So I polished it up, and sent it in. And SHAZAM!!! It made it to the semifinals! This is a copy of it. It is published at poetry.com.
Two in Rivendell
He descends from Arathorn
She is an elf of Elrond''s descent
He is Aragorn, battle tested but worn
She is Arwen, fairest elf in lament
His great sword Anduril has pierced many foes
Her wisdom and knowledge surpass all land''s lore
He has fought evil till the midnight crow crows
For her land, her Rivendell, which she lives for
A man and elf, a very odd couple
Arwen the fair, Aragorn the Strider
Together in calm times, love is quite supple
Together they have fought the nine dark riders.
Even when Gandalf is gone, and Sauron sees light,
In Rivendell, they will dwell through the night.

Not the best, but I did alright for my first poem, I think!
