Legolas and Gimli had a slaying competition
their counts were thought to be above suspicion
Gimli declared his sum
and beat Legolas by one
claiming eighty-three orcs sent to perdition.

A bloody epic was told of a Ring --
A bauble, a decorative thing.
To stir so much passion
Over a small piece of fashion
Must make Sauron The Lord of the Bling.

Faramir for women had no eye
Until Rohan arose as Gondor's ally,
When to Lady Eowyn
Of Theoden's kin
He could for days on end say good-bye.

This one is for "The King's Players" RPers and those who pay attention to the "Itaril" thread.

The world had peace. Nothing scary
Interrupted the life that was merry,
Until one Itaril Elf
Came, her most evil self,
And another weird Elf that's called "Mary".

Crossing the Helcaraxe wasn't fun
Yet Figolfin found that his journey has just began:
After days and nights cold -
Well, you know, this story is old -
He discovered he's back in Aman.

(Sorry, Meela, I kind of stole your "wrong direction" idea...
