The stagnant meres, the marshy stink. Small creatures in the shallows sink And struggle for life helplessly Then drown in quagmire soundlessly. This once was a vast battle-plain: The Last Alliance marched to gain The victory in the Black Land Of Mordor, severing from hand Of Sauron his One Ruling Ring. So many died his end to bring About. High elves lie side by...

The wizard speaks. Wood-splitting crack! The staff of Saruman – once black As ebony – splinters to dust. “Betrayer of the holy trust – Perfidious liar! Now you’ll see The wrack of all your plans-to-be! No longer Grey – Gandalf the White Stands forth revealed to your sight! And from our order I cast out You Saruman! Here all about You lies in ruins...

That Saruman had turned – who knew? Betrayed us all, the Council White In which his contributions might Have done much good. He did oppose The Dark Lord’s schemes – and yet, it shows How...

How, for all time He made a secret Trojan Horse Inside the other rings, to force Them to serve Sauron from the hour He donned his Ruling Ring of Power! I daily seek the Ruling Ring! I must know more! I am finding Out how to smith one for myself. To...

Osgiliath! Built in the days of yore. The Citadel of Stars so named, before Foul shadows came to dwell and prowl the street Where once fair forms gathered to talk and greet In Gondor’s days of strength, now long passed by – For Mordor’s land is close, its power nigh. Now all its houses, shops, bridges of stone: Destroyed and broken. Evils once unknown...

Flash! went the staff as blue fire burns the stone But the Riders were strong. The wizard was alone. Weathertop, a watchtower, built in happier days When Arnor in the north was created and raised Many towers of strength to keep watch on the north Till the envy and malice of Mordor went forth And Arnor was betrayed to the death. Even so Arnor fell in the...

The ranger lounged. The inn at Bree Had seen few stranger folk than he. In a dark corner of the inn He surveyed all the comers-in And watched them with a practiced eye As into separate groups they ply Fresh ale with friends. No friends had he – The ranger visiting at Bree. The ranger rests. He’d traveled far By day, by night, by wandering star Through...

Not friend, nor foe, none foul nor clean Shall keep from us the jewels. We mean That neither Morgoth, Vala bright, Or Dark Lord brood from hellish night, Or race of gods, or strong Maia, Or whatsoever other power: Man unborn yet on Middle Earth, Or other race whatever worth, Nor law, nor love, nor league of sword, Nor armies gathering afterward Shall keep from...
