I'm with Iarwain about the Lay of Leithian, and the Ainulindale in the Silm is almost like poetry, so I'll say that I like that one, too. I like it because of its imagery and sound, and the way it puts into words something very hard to describe. Alot of Tolkien's prose reads somewhat like epic poetry, which is pretty amazing. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I also like Sam's song in the tower of Cirith Ungol, the Bath song, Treebeard's song, almost any song! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
I do write poetry, but it's not particularly about any of Tolkien's works, although I have been inspired by some of his ideas.
Peace
