Thank you. :)

Don't expect anything grand since I am definately not a poet.

A lot have I seen
Long here I've been
Found my home near the half-grown
a good thing for the life of our own

(now that really sucks. I just wrote a poem before this one so I had no inspiration left. yes yes, excuses...)

Oropher then, he was slain during the War of the Last Alliance.
He's an Elf.
Remembered through his son Thranduil who survived the battle and returned to Mirkwood.
Faithful, because of his picking the side of good?

Oropher it was!


Charged and fell - charged the Black Gate and was slain
Weak but faithful - Orophers elves had no armour and charged head on, but were true to sticking with the Last Alliance
forgotton yet remembered - remembered indeed by Thranduil, even though no spken much of, hes still there

your turn!

Thanx...

Some think I'm a bird
Some think I'll land gently in the dirt
Some think I'm a stone
But what I can no one really knows

It is incorrect, and you were the one asking for reasons, weren't you?

Some think I'm a bird - friends with the eagles
Some think I'll land gently in the dirt - the brown, a nature lover
Some think I'm a stone - Saruman calls him stupid, like a stone
But what I can no one really knows - did not really have a purpose, or no one can see his purpose

If I do, I give it away probably... but because you asked that friendly...

Hint: an easy little question, but the more we examine it the harder it gets to answer it.

Question Alright, here goes nothing...:rolleyes:

We live in the Mountains, dark and damp,
Once we caught dwarves, they'd set up camp,
That night on the doorstep, we walked up the ramp,
And took the travelers out for a stamp and tramp.

Then a bright light, filled us with dread,
the dangerous flash, that made us like lead,
but we kept the dwarves, to the King we led,
when the Beater came out, and stoke him down dead!

We still live in Mountains, dark and deep,
we keep all travelers from their sleep,
along the shadows, swiftly we creep,
after revenge, the promise we keep.
