Back to the beginning!

The release of the second installment of The Lord of the Rings trilogy
is inspiring our writers - no big surprise there!
Here's some of the newest:

Gríma

How a single tear trickling down
The ghastly face of an evil man
Can say so much
And move one's heart.
Even a blackened soul like that
Can be confronted by malice beyond its ken
And regret.

-MedicRN

Estel

(dedicated to Debbie, the non-LoTR fan who loves Aragorn)
Evil times and evil men
Have come upon us once again
Good crushed Evil long ago
With courage and skill, sword and bow

But Evil has a staying power
And now grows stronger by the hour
So Evil has a face once more
Thousands of faces right at our door

Rain beats down hard
As do their spears
Savage growls grow stronger
As do our fears

Evil times call for better men
To rally our courage once again
We had no time to seek such a man out
Who could banish our worries and our doubt

Suddenly from amongst us he came
Intense eyes burning like two blue flames
Grim of face yet so steadfast
He made us believe that we could last

Now true courage has a name
And our hope is reborn
In this one remarkable man
By the name of Aragorn.
