Poems of the Pine: Ode to Tuckborough

Before we head deeper into Angmar, let’s take a little break and look at the troubles in the Shire.

Interlude – Ode to Tuckborough

Trouble takes
our Tuckborough folk,
As brigands bring
a blight of woe.
We gore the goblins
and gut the wolves
To save the Shire
with spear of oak.
 
Trouble tears
our Tuckborough home
As hobbits hide
in holes so deep.
We fight our foes
to free the Shire
Of raging roughs
that wreck our land.
 
Trouble tests
our Tuckborough heart
To weather woes
that wasters bring
To shed the Shire
of Sharkey’s men
And bring us back
to bliss and peace.

Now that we thought about the troubles back home, it’s time to get back to the task at hand in Angmar.
