Taur im Duinath
The constellation is Taurus, and by removing a superpower (U.S.) from it we get Taur. Instant Message abbreviated gives us I.M.; the shortened river is [An]duin and the m-less subject is [M]ath, the final answer being a forest.

I'm going to be difficult with this one and demand the full solution. As it happens, Simbelmynë is a long way from the right answer anyway.
Clue: double meanings are pivotal to the solution.

Thinking out loud . . .
"Flower" could mean the name of a flower (rose, iris, daisy, to name some short ones), or the name of a river (Aros, Celos, etc., again starting with shorter names). As a cryptic clue, "involved in" might mean that one word is inside another, as where "Soldier involved in familar area" becomes "LOGICAL" ("GI" in "local"). "Rite" - can't think of any short synonyms or examples.
