Middle Earth Nursery Rhymes
There was an old Wizard who traversed the land
with a crooked, blue hat and a staff in his hand. A Hobbit he sought,an adventure to share. Gold to recover when they got there. There was an old Wizard who went to the Shire He had 13 dwarves and they did conspire He gave them a map, and with it a key. And also a Hobbit who missed Morning Tea [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] |
LOL, Rae!! Got to think one of those up, myself!!

How many leagues to Orodruin?
Three score leagues and ten. Can I get there by Phial-light? Yes, if you travel cloaked by night And keep your guide within your sight You can get there by Phial-light. |

All the Istari
Sat in their saris, Eating their curds & whey. When down came a Sauron, (A bit of a moron) And that did spoil their day. |

Ugh...been racking my brains, and this is the best I could come up with so far.
There was a hobbit couple who lived in a hole they had lots of children, which didn't bother them at all. She was a loving wife he a gardner for hire and all those children? Why, they replenished the Shire. Quote:

Sauron had a little ring, little ring, little ring
Sauron had a little ring, and it was made of gold. He used the ring to scare the kids, scare the kids, scare the kids. He used the ring to scare the kids, and so this tale was told. A little hobbit found the rind, found the ring, found the ring A little hobbit found the ring, and kept it in his cave. Another hobbit came along, came along, came along Another hobbit came along, and took the ring from him He left the one ring to Frodo, to Frodo, to Frodo He left the one ring to Frodo, and Gandalf got freaked out He told Frodo to leave at once, leave at once, leave at once He told Frodo to leave at once, and he took his pal Sam along They came among two other friends, other friends, other friends They came among two other friends, called Merry and Pippin They saw a ringwraith on the path, on the path, on the path They saw a ringwraith on the path, and they set out for th'old town Bree Strider came upon them there, upon them there, upon them there Strider came upon them there, and led them to Rivendell Feel free to finish! |

Replenishing the Shire, neat [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] . Hey, it's true - the Shire's population couldn't have been *that* big,
This is the Ring that Baggins stole. This is heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. This is the friend, who stayed by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. This is the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stayed by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. This is Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. This is King who looked in the Stone, who diverted the Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. This is the Elf-maiden, fair and alone, who loved the King who looked in the Stone, who diverted the Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. This is the Wizard, triumphant at morn, who joined the Elf-maiden, fair and alone, with the King who looked in the ancient Stone, who diverted the Eye all fiery with scorn, who tortured the Stoor all shrunken and worn, who betrayed the friend, who stood by the heir, who inherited the Ring that Baggins stole. OK, not great, but there it is. Bet you didn't think I'd write the whole thing out, did you? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] |
It was excellent, Kalimac! much better than mine! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Glorfindel's Lament
Ride an Elf horse to Bruinen Ford to rescue a hobbit, you plucky Elf Lord! 'Gainst Ring Wraiths and Balrogs You always will win, but you blew the audition and now you're ARWEN? |
LOL! I LOVE IT!
|
That's wonderful, Birdland!! (Poor old Glorfindel...his name definitely lives on in song, but maybe not quite the way he'd pictured it [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img])
Poor little Smeagol Murdered poor Deagol Just for a chance at the Ring. Thus he was foredone And goodness did shun And at last was destroyed by the thing. |
Thought up this one (as well as my last riddle)on the way home from the dr. this morning, what that says, I don't know, but here it is:
--------------------------------------------- Evil lord Sauron has lost his Ring and dosen't know where to find it. Leave it alone and a hobbit will bring it home and for the good of Middle-Earth throw it in a fire pit! Quote:

Great Job, Samwise & Birdland! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

There once was a nasty hobbit
who was old and very mean, She'd yell and complain, all the live long day, until she got Bilbo's key! |

Gollum was a hobbit
With a fetish for the Ring He followed Sam and Frodo around With hopes, of his precious, to cling The lust was too much He began to throw a fit And finally got a hold on that thing And fell into a pit! I personally have nothing against Gollum, he's one of my favorites [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Hey Kalimac: Love the signature! [ April 16, 2002: Message edited by: Elenya ] |

Okay, despite the fact I mangle the English language daily for my work I am no poet so this has taken me ages and isn't that hot. Nevermind here goes:
Bye baby Halfling Aragorn's gone a hunting To fetch on orc or goblin skin To wrap our little Hobbit in. Actually that's quite gross. He could be done for Hobbit-abuse. Sorry I'll try a different tack. |
OOOooohhh, that WAS gross, Auriel, but it was funny. Thanks for joining.
I'm not a good writer and had to really think about it before I posted one. Where are you from? is English your primary language? |
Yes I am English. Although technically I am actually living in Middle Earth as I live near Sarehole, the original inspiration for the Shire. It is my primary language as you so beautifully put it but I also speak German, French, some Spanish and Gaelic. Sounds cool but wrecks your ability to spell. Now back to thinking up another rhyme.

Bye baby Halfling Bilbo once went a hunting Brought back a little Mithril skin To wrap an "Elven Princeling" in! (Yeah, Mithril's not "skin", but this rhyme is what that made me think of...) Quote:

That was great Samwise! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Brilliant and loads less gross than mine.

Birdland, ooh, that was vicious [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] . Which makes me think...
Jack and Jill went up the hill To read H.o.M.E. Jack thoughts did drift and so he left While Jill screamed "Philistine!" Kinda feeble, I know, but the best I can come up with a long hiatus. |

There once was a hobbit
Who found a gold ring. Which was forged by Sauron, An evil king [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] He left it to Frodo Instead of some cash, Who snuck into Mordor And burned it to ash. ---------------------------------------- How do you like it? Wrote it in five minutes [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [ April 29, 2002: Message edited by: Gimli Son Of Gloin ] |
